Exploring Chester Play 19
Episode 100, Sep 16, 2019, 10:41 AM
An exploratory read through of play 19 from the Chester Mystery Cycle
Exploring the Chester Mystery Cycle - Play 19 (Lucas and Cleophas & Doubting Thomas)
From our Exploring workshop, where we read through the text of this play for future use towards an audio/stage show. We're into the home straight now, with the appearance of Jesus to various disciples.
The Beyond Shakespeare Irregulars this episode were Liz Cole, Richard Fawcett, Mark Scanlon, and Alan Scott – with host, Robert Crighton.
There are more versions of the Chester plays than you can shake a stick at - (actually there are eight) - so any text you use to follow will probably be a bit different to ours (for the sticklers, our base text was H, except for play five, where it was just easier to go for a group text (D-or Hm, A, R, B) composite - though some readings may have been borrowed from all). However, you don't necessarily need to worry about such things, so here's a nice friendly modern spelling version we found online. http://groups.chass.utoronto.ca/plspls/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/index.html
