Summary

Liv speaks with Classicist and dramaturg Emma Pauly about nonbinary Dionysus in Euripides' Bacchae and the resulting implications for Pentheus (along with queerness in myth and theatre in general!) For a refresher on Euripides' Bacchae you can listen to the past episodes covering the play here and here.

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
