MARLOWE: Gay Atheist Spy

Does anyone still have an .mp3 of the show's glorious theme tune? I lost it when I last moved computers.

Some of you may know that I recently had an assignment to write a 10-minute play for a Dramaturgy class. Never having written a play before in my LIFE, I was desperate for an idea, ANY idea of where to start.

So, where better than with a Gay Atheist Spy?

I scoured through this community, looking for just the right episode for inspiration, and decided to write the Merry Adventure of Wriostheley's Cat. Take it for what you will, and I thank you ALL for the amazing ideas we've all come up with here. I think I stole a joke or two from comments here as I was rereading everything I could find. Also, you'll note that I played willy nilly with the historical accuracy- I didn't pay too much attention to the timeline, as it's not like Will and Kit were every ACTUALLY roommates in the first place, after all.

I hope you enjoy. :)

Hello! Hope this is okay to post here... murder_sub_rosa is a new LJ group devoted to mystery novels relating to the Ancient Rome through Renaissance eras! Please, come join us! Thank you! :)

I just want say how much I love the icons, the episodes and the pics! This summer, I saw Honan' s "Christopher Marlowe: Poet and Spy" and bought it since I'm a sucker for anything about Kit, but especially with a title like that - you can see whay I gravitated to this community. I've read "The Reckoning" and delved a bit into Shakespeare, Elizabeth, Mary Queen of Scots and the Elizabethan Secret Service, but I'm no expert. Still,  I might be tempted to try to write an episode....

So,let us do this in an organized and documentable fashion. I hereby volunteer to be part of the writing team for Episode 1. Who else? At least one person who can handle plotting and structure is needed, because that's not me.

Oh no! You lot aren't getting out of it that easily! I demand episodes! And if what it takes to get them is collating all the ideas so far into some kind of order, THEN THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO!

Suggestions? Comments? Volunteers to write the first episode?

Most of the links so far lead to nowhere, but I wanted to get people's approval and A-OK before going any further.

So, whadday'allthink?

Sorry mostly everything on the front page is bullshit, but I wanted to check it was all working, and to do that I needed enough text to make the div layer overflow. I know also that this show already has a site- but hey, no band, television series or cartoon is complete without at least one obsessive fansite to track its every move.

The link on the info page to the theme song leads ultimately to a dead YSI link; does anyone have it to repost or a more permanent link for downloading?

The image in the following link was not made by me but I thought the community might enjoy seeing him in yet another disguise. We have heard of him. http://www.osmond-riba.org/lis/Graphics/PirateKit.jpg Tending sheep was merely a hobby, as it turns out.

As a result of this thread, I've posted another Gay Atheist Spy manip in my LJ. :o)
