In this Birthday episode, we discuss the women of colour who shape Shakespeare and Britain, Ulysses, and the all-women-of-colour Richard II. This is part-1 of a two-part conversation.   This episode is a collaboration with a special issue of the journal, Otherness: Essays and Studies. Edited by Dr. Anne Sophie Refskou, the special issue is all about 'representing (and misrepresenting) the title characters in Richard II and Richard II'. Listeners will find a wealth of both contextual material for Andoh's production as well as good companion pieces here: https://www.otherness.dk/journal/otherness-essays-studies-82/Check out http://www.womenandshakespeare.com for a complete transcript.Interviewer & Producer: Varsha PanjwaniGuest: Adjoa AndohArtwork: Wenqi Wan Part-Sponsored by NYU Global Faculty Fund AwardInterviewer & Producer: Varsha PanjwaniGuest: Adjoa AndohArtwork: Wenqi Wan Part-Sponsored by NYU Global Faculty Fund Award
