Masqued Realities –– The Stuart Court Masque Dress: Fancy: The Podcast About Dressing Up

This week, Lucy and Ben are off to the court to enjoy the spectacle that was the masque.

Discussing the tense creative partnership between poet Ben Jonson and architect Inigo Jones, the show takes you to a world of sensory excess that was fit for a king - and his queen - in every sense.
