Middleton's Endgame - A Game at Chess LIVE! archive

A pop up festival of Thomas Middleton, featuring his last performed works, including his most (in)famously successful play A Game at Chess, and his Lord Mayor's Show for 1626. Following their successful Winter Revels run at the White Bear, Beyond returns for a day long event celebrating the work of Thomas Middleton at the end of his career. A Game at Chess, a play featuring chess pieces in a cold war one side against the other, was performed nine times in a row in 1624, a scandalous event that ended his career. Beyond will be recording the play live for the podcast, as well as other works and material from the end of Middleton's career. With expert discussion, and even a whole Lord Mayor's Show, this is not to be missed.
