Simon Callow does stand-up comedy. Filthy, foul mouthed, viciously funny and deeply politically incorrect. The target: immigrants, plutocrats, women, gays. As last delivered in Rome AD 100.
Juvenal was one angry white middle-class male. In Juvenalia he tells it like it was. And is.
The writer, Juvenal born circa AD55, wrote sixteen satires that attacked the decadence of Rome in its heyday. Here, adapted by Richard Quick, we are given a view into the moral decline that is as relevant now, as it was back then.
