Phryne
Natalie Haynes Stands Up for the Classics - Podcast készítő BBC Radio 4
Kategóriák:
Join Natalie Haynes and guests for half an hour of comedy and the Classics from the BBC Radio Theatre in London.
Natalie is a recovering comedian who is a little bit obsessive about Ancient Greece and Rome. Each week she takes a different figure from the Ancient World and tells their story through a mix of stand-up comedy and conversation.
Today she stands up in the name of Phryne, the Greek courtesan famed for her extraordinary wit and beauty. Glossy of skin and a model for statues of the goddess Aphrodite, Phryne was as clever as they come and minted to boot.
Outrage, outrageousness and as always, a lot of gossip from a couple of thousand years ago.
With special guests comedian Katy Brand and classicist Professor Edith Hall. Producer...Mary Ward-Lowery.
