Pericles - Sniveling Little Freshmeat Play On Podcasts

    • Performing Arts

Welcome to the fifth episode of the Play On Podcasts Series Pericles.

Synopsis:
Marina, now grown, is the envy of all of Tarsus, much to the chagrin of the jealous Dionyza, who conspires to have her killed by her servant, Leonine. Overpowered by pirates who kidnap Marina, Leonine leaves her for dead and they take her to Myteline, where she is sold to a brothel. There, she drives her captors mad with her ability to change the hearts and minds of all the men who seek to rob her of her virginity, until she is met by the Lord Lysimachus, the governor of the land. Meanwhile, Cleon and Dionyza, bickering in the aftermath of her treachery, must deliver the news of Marina’s death to Pericles, who has returned to Tarsus to bring his daughter home to Tyre. Wracked with grief and consumed by sorrow, Pericles sets out to sea wearing only sackcloth, vowing never to speak or groom himself again.
