A major element of the project is to use filmed live performances as an integral part of the research process.  Full professional films have been made of both Sir David Lyndsay’s A Satire of Three Estates and a reconstruction of an interlude by Lyndsay performed in its original setting at Linlithgow Castle.

The full performance of both A Satire of Three Estates and the interlude are now available below along with an interactive video feature.
