Another Sleuthing Marlowe

If other historical celebrities (Mark Twain, Edgar Allan Poe, even Charles Dickens’ Tiny Tim) can demonstrate their investigative prowess in fiction, then why not 16th-century dramatist and poet Christopher Marlowe? Via the estimable Elizabeth Foxwell’s blog comes word that BBC Radio will present the first two of four “Christopher Marlowe Mysteries” later this week, starring Dominic Jephcott. The broadcast schedule can be found here.

You can listen to the shows live, or they should be accessible online at the BBC site for a limited period of time.
