Count MoriVond performs: “A Satire on Charles II”

Count MoriVond“A Satire on Charles II” written by the 2nd Earl of Rochester, John Wilmot. A theatrical lambasting of the reign of King Charles, the 2nd. An iconic figure, the Stuart… so much so that I’ve decided to dress as the merry monarch in this buffoonery-laden spoof. Mad Earl. Merry Monarch. The Merry Gang….…

A bit of an introduction. 

I, write and perform poetry. Often bawdy and lurid, rather “dark” as well - but I never take myself too seriously... so these are sometimes accompanied with a dash of self-deflating comic buffoonery... sometimes. 

I like reciting classic pieces of poetry as well. And I enjoy the regal aesthetics of the Baroque and Romantic periods. 

Hope you enjoy what you see here https://www.youtube.com/CountMoriVond  as there’s plenty more to come. Be a joy and Subscribe! 

Thank you.
