Jane Boleyn is easily one of the most vilified yet fascinating figures from tudor history. She has been, to my mind, unfairly maligned, repeatedly treated as a pantomime villain who destroyed her husband and sister-in-law. This week I welcome Laura Crow onto the podcast to discuss her play, Vile, the possible redemption of Jane Boleyn with me. In this upcoming, audacious and to use the official tagline “rude and radical" reimagining of Jane’s story, Laura discusses the otherness of Jane and her equally maligned husband George Boleyn, examining how queer identity, ableism and mental illness have all shaped the reputations of these two figures.
