Two lawyers and two theatre people walk into a bar…
That’s the set-up for this meeting at the sign of the Blue Boar. How did our tavern crew first get turned on to all the questions surrounding this mysterious “AUTHOR” (as Ben Jonson oddly shouted him out in ALL CAPS in the First Folio) that people have been asking since at least 1593?
Dorothea Dickerman and Bryan Wildenthal (the legal eagles), and theatrical mavens Phoebe Nir and Jonathan Dixon (the latter working his usual second job as our friendly bartender), take a break from heavy research and just ask each other questions on how the heck we got so hooked on this subject.
