Episode description

In the 17th century, Aphra Behn found herself as one of the first English women to earn a living primarily by playwriting. She helped to break down the barriers of the male-dominated industry, and her legacy lives on today. This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob explore her most well known play, "The Rover." It follows several groups of friends as they romp through Naples during Carnival time. Listen in!
