Welcome, one and all, to the final interview episode of The Genre-l Idea!

After tackling the First Folio categorisations and later Victorian sub-genres of Shakespeare’s plays, we’re going to have a look at Shakespeare’s poetry. With me is a friend of the podcast back again for another episode, Fenna Capelle.

In this episode, we discuss love vs desire, poetry vs performance and the relationship between Shakespeare poetry and plays.

Fenna Capelle is a 20 year old poet, student, linguist and actress based in the Netherlands. She recently graduated at University College Roosevelt with a bachelor's degree in linguistics, antiquity, literature and rhetoric. She is the author of two books of poetry, Oblivion and of Masks and Mirrors (the latter recently published), and Poor Death, a third book of poems that will hopefully be on the market soon.

Her acting work mainly consisted of work at her university's theatre company, where she took her place both as an actress and director. She's also a co-founder of Wide and Universal Theatre, a group of international actors that come together for online zoom productions - William Shakespeare's King John (2022) and Prince of Camelot, an original production (2023)
