Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a Jacobean play written at least in part by William Shakespeare and included in modern editions of his collected works despite questions over its authorship, as it was not included in the First Folio. Modern editors generally agree that Shakespeare is responsible for almost exactly half the play—827 lines—the main portion after scene 9 that follows the story of Pericles and Marina. Modern textual studies indicate that the first two acts of 835 lines detailing the many voyages of Pericles were written by a mediocre collaborator, which strong evidence suggests to have been the victualler, pander, dramatist and pamphleteer George Wilkins.

Great for Studying, Would Not See This Cast Live

This is a great series to listen to while reading the script. However in the future, I would recommend recording a scene with the whole cast in one sitting. It was clear that they were recorded at different times. Also shoutout to male Siri for making his Shakespearean debut as Helicanus!! Here are some roles that deserve a round of applause for great character: Lord, Second Fisherman, Evil Pooh Bear - oops I mean First Gentleman, First Pirate, and Bawd. Thanks for keeping it fresh.
