I highly, highly recommend, nay, insist that you all go listen to The Duchess of Malfi on the Radio 3 website while you still can (you have until next weekend). Because IT IS AWESOME.

'Twas indeed excellent, although I wish they hadn't cut the "Hark, now everything is still" song and most of Julia's and Castruccio's parts. Ah well.

Slinger's performance is the EPITOME of dirtybadwronghot. There is a picture of it next to "dirtybadwronghot" in the dictionary, or there would be if you could photograph an audio performance and "dirtybadwronghot" were in the dictionary.
