The Tragedy of Antony by Mary Sidney

Yes, it's finally here - the final cut of the full cast audio adaptation of The Tragedy of Antony by Robert Garnier, translated by Mary Sidney Herbert. It has been a long road to get here, using recordings from before the plague and without recourse to retakes. I hope you like it.
CW: Themes and depiction of suicide, sounds of war, a culture of misogyny, violent death, general lamentation.
