This week, we take a break from Greece for our monthly Shakespeare and turn to Much Ado About Nothing, a play I found completely charming.After a quick trip through the plot, I compare Much Ado with last month's As You Like It: the different ways Shakespeare moves the action along, the surprising darkness lurking inside his comedies, and the very different themes he manages to explore while still making us laugh. We'll also look at one unexpectedly moving speech about grief that stopped me in my tracks.Finally, I talk about Kenneth Branagh's gorgeous 1993 film adaptation, featuring Emma Thompson, Denzel Washington, a very young Kate Beckinsale—and, fresh off his iconic Point Break role, Keanu Reeves!If Shakespeare makes you nervous, this funny, accessible play might be a very good place to start. And if you're tired of the comedy, come back next week for everyone's favorite Shakespeare for Halloween: Macbeth!BOOKS IN THIS EPISODEFolgers Library Editions of As You Like It, Much Ado About Nothing, Henry V, Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth.CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes (Amazon affiliate links): https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ Like what you heard?

Did Shakespeare teach us about England's greatest kings, or fabricate its greatest historical myths? How much of what you think you know about Henry IV and Henry V is actually true?Shakespeare's history plays continue to define our understanding of medieval England, the Plantagenets, the Hundred Years' War, and the rise and fall of England's warrior kings.But Dr. Eleanor Janega separates history from drama with Professor Emma Smith to reveal how Shakespeare transformed Prince Hal from a wayward youth into England's greatest warrior king, invented the legendary Falstaff, and immortalised Agincourt with the stirring "Band of Brothers" speech.MORE:The Battle of AgincourtListen on AppleListen on SpotifyThe Murder of Henry VIListen on AppleListen on SpotifyGone Medieval is presented by Dr. Eleanor Janega.

Henry VWilliam Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)After the turmoil and uncertainty of Henry IV a new era appears to dawn for England with the accession of the eponymous Henry V. In this sunny pageant Chorus guides us along Henry's glittering carpet ride of success as the new king completes his transformation from rebellious wastrel to a truly regal potentate. Of course, there is an underlying feeling that the good times won't last, and this is all the more reason to enjoy the Indian summer before the protracted and bitter fall of the house of Lancaster.

Syksyllä valmistaudutaan talveen ja lehtipuut kertovat itsestään värein. Mutta miksi haapa voi olla sekä keltainen että punainen? Syksyllä ihan vierekkäiset koivut voivat olla keskenään erilaisia - yksi keltaisessa syysasussa ja kaveri vihreässä kesämekossa. Seisovatko siinä hidas varmistelija ja riskinottaja? Ovatko puut yksilöitä ja miten ne toimivat syksyllä? Onko pihassasi tai lähimetsässä sinulle tärkeä puu, josta haluaisit tietää lisää? Kuuntelijoiden kysymyksiin vastaamassa ovat arboristi Sami Kiema, kasvitutkija ja yli-intendentti Henry Väre sekä emeritusprofessori Kurt Fagerstedt. Juontajina Markku Sipi ja Aki Laine.

The Life of Henry V by William Shakespeare w/Jesan Sorrells and Zac Stucki---Delving into William Shakespeare's The Life of Henry V, Jesan Sorrells and Zac Stucki analyze the cultural foundation of leadership, the decline of cultural confidence in Western societies, and the complex responsibilities leaders face when making consequential decisions.

Just a year after he received his first two Oscar nominations for both starring in and directing Henry V, Oscar-winner writer/director Kenneth Branagh (Belfast, Thor, Murder on the Orient Express) directed and starred in this dazzling modern reinvention of the sort of suspense thrillers which Alfred Hitchcock had specialized in several decades prior. The story focuses on a mysterious woman (Oscar-winner Emma Thompson) who has lost her memory, the private detective (Branagh) who has been tasked with helping her find out her memory, and.....how this mystery connects to the tragic passings in the 1940's of Roman and Margaret Strauss (Branagh, Thompson), a composer and musician who fell in love. What results is passion and danger for all involved! Also co-starring Andy Garcia, Derek Jacobi, Wayne Knight, and Robin Williams, this twisty and time-bending tale of love and loss remains an almost forgotten gem from thirty-five years ago.Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
What a treat! When I spotted Dan Jones' 2024 biography of Henry V in the bookstore, I couldn't resist. In this episode we explore how history and drama can collide. What makes something "true?" Is it the story you repeat to yourself, or the actual facts that not everyone remembers?I loved being able to read this book against Shakespeare's Henriad. Would it spoil the spell that Shakespeare had cast over me, disturb the golden glow that I held our Harry in?

Back with our once-a-month Shakespeare, this week wrapping up the trilogy of Henry plays with my personal favorite, Henry V. This week I did a quick review of how I read Shakespeare--movie, Folgers Shakespeare edition--and then we jumped into the play. After the humor of Falstaff and the exploits of our Prince Harry, Henry V is decidedly more serious. Prince Harry has become King Henry V, and he's going to war to claim the French throne. Shakespeare gives us a guide, the Chorus, who navigates the action as we watch Harry lead his army through the siege at Harfleur and the slog to Calais. The ragged army arrives at the field of Agincourt vastly outnumbered by a fresh French army when Henry gives what I think is one of the finest speeches in all of Shakespeare (although I have only nine other plays to compare to!). The "band of brothers" St. Crispin's Day speech is one for the ages!The play isn't only about battles, though. We see Harry struggle with betrayal and the consequences of leadership, and we see him court Princess Katherine of France in some of the lighter moments of the play. And while we no longer have Falstaff, the French leadership provide their own share of comic relief, which must have played well in Elizabethan England, too.By the way, you truly MUST watch the Kenneth Branagh movie, Henry V. As of July 2026 it's included in Amazon Prime--this is a movie that will win over the most anti-Shakespeare person in your life.Next month we take on our first comedy, As You Like It. And we are choosing plays to read in the coming months over on the Substack chat--please let me know what you want to read! That link is below.And next week, we take a closer look at the historical Henry V with Dan Brown's 2024 biography.

In 1475, nobody wants a Henry V impersonator, but Edward IV goes ahead and does his best impression anyway. Edward, buoyant from vanquishing his enemies at home, now wants to re-unite the kingdom against its longtime enemy: France. He wants the family heirlooms back: Normandy and Gascony. So he assembles the biggest army in living memory — about 13,000 strong — and launches an assault on Paris, via Calais and Agincourt. Another Duke of Burgundy allies with England, too. But Edward IV is no Henry V. Edward's first allegiance is to pleasure, and it's a fact the French King, Louis XI, ruthlessly exploits. – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. It's where you get your bonus episodes, and on this week's episode Dan reveals whether the Hundred Years' War was actually over by Edward IV's invasion. Plus, more on why Henry Tudor's the new pawn to be traded between Edward, Louis XI, and the Duke of Burgundy. – A Sony Music Entertainment production.

Finally—the first unit of reading this year! We are reading all kinds of English literature, from histories to plays, and even some poetry, and this is the episode I share with you what's on the list.When we decided to go on this trip to England, I thought this was a great time to combine an old routine of “pre-vacation reading” with my newfound enjoyment of old, classic, and even “great” books. This is the first time I've put together anything more than just one or two titles, though, and I'm interested to see how it works out.While I haven't finished everything yet, here is what's on the list right now:Venerable Bede—An Ecclesiastical History of England (Honestly way more fun than it sounds)Alfred the Great—A History of the Anglo-Saxon People (and Vikings!)Bijan Omrani—God Is an Englishman (modern history that talks about English Christianity and the Church of England)Henry Fielding—The History of Thomas Jones, a Foundling (I've never read anything that more embodies the word “rollicking”)Anne Brontë—The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (less rollicking for sure)The Book of Common Prayer (1662 Edition)Helene Hanff—84, Charing Cross Road and Q's Legacy (set in London but that's okay)James Herriott—All Creatures Great and Small (for Yorkshire atmosphere)William Shakespeare—Henry IV Parts 1 and 2; Henry V (the history England THINKS is true)I've already read many of these, but we are only leaving for our trip this week. So come with me while we see if this helps, was too much, or maybe I missed the mark entirely! What should I add for a trip to Yorkshire and Scotland?

Teaching Shakespeare's Theatre of the World (Cambridge University Press, 2025) engages with one of Shakespeare's greatest thought-experiments: How does one navigate the 'theatre of the world'? It invites students to examine how Shakespeare challenges this metaphor's vertical hierarchies in response to shifting understandings of cosmological order. Teachers will find rich contextual frameworks for exploring how Shakespeare envisions 'worlds' as emerging from dynamic variables, raising urgent questions about how identity and justice are environmentally constructed. Focal plays include A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It, Hamlet, Henry V, The Merchant of Venice, and Othello. Each discussion features student centered 'Explorations'. These play-specific classroom activities can also be adapted across Shakespeare's corpus and tailored for both secondary and university-level students. These exercises encourage non-linear critical and creative thinking, inviting students to contemplate big ideas and generate new perspectives about the shared points of contact between Shakespeare's world and their own.

Teaching Shakespeare's Theatre of the World (Cambridge University Press, 2025) engages with one of Shakespeare's greatest thought-experiments: How does one navigate the 'theatre of the world'? It invites students to examine how Shakespeare challenges this metaphor's vertical hierarchies in response to shifting understandings of cosmological order. Teachers will find rich contextual frameworks for exploring how Shakespeare envisions 'worlds' as emerging from dynamic variables, raising urgent questions about how identity and justice are environmentally constructed. Focal plays include A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It, Hamlet, Henry V, The Merchant of Venice, and Othello. Each discussion features student centered 'Explorations'. These play-specific classroom activities can also be adapted across Shakespeare's corpus and tailored for both secondary and university-level students.

We kick off our once-a-month Shakespeare series with one of my favorites from last year, Henry IV, Part One. The trilogy of Henry IV, Parts One and Two, and Henry V form The Henriad and are a great way to learn about the way England thinks about its own history.I review my method of reading Shakespeare (see last season's Week 26 for more information), and then we move on to the actual history of the period these plays are about. It looked a lot like the world of Shakespeare, and his audience, with its tumultous succession issues.Then we move on to the actual plot, and how the characters break down into pairs: of kings; of princes; of fathers and sons. There are so many pairs that in some way this play even feels like it has two storylines.After a talk about the plot of the play, and its theme of "how to be a king," we move on to talk about how the play was perceived by the audience at the time.As always, I give my opinions about this play--except you probably already know that I LOVE this one!I highly recommend this BBC production to watch.I love the Folger Shakespeare Library edition of this play!Next Shakespeare: Henry IV, Part Two, on June 30.Next week: Reading as a Superpower, my talk with Fr.

Sent us a text, you dicks!!There are several wars happening in the world now. We don't think all of them are justified. In this episode, we discuss the wars in the canon and whether or not we think those were fair - or just plain idiotic. As Shakespeare said:Now, for our consciences, the arms are fair When the intent of bearing them is just. - Hotspur, Henry IV Part 1, Act 5, Scene 2OrBut if the cause be not good, the King himself hath a heavy reckoning to make, when all those legs and arms and heads, chopped off in a battle, shall join together at the latter day, and cry all “We died at such a place,” some swearing, some crying for a surgeon, some upon their wives left poor behind them, some upon the debts they owe, some upon their children rawly left. I am afeard there are few die well that die in a battle, for how can they charitably dispose of anything when blood is their argument? - Williams, Henry V, Act 4, Scene 1 Or, as Edwin Starr said in his famous song in 1970:War, huh, yeahWhat is it good for?Absolutely nothing, uhhWar, huh, yeahWhat is it good for?To send us an email - please do, we truly want to hear from you!!! - write us at: thebardcastyoudick@gmail.com To support us (by giving us money - we're a 501C3 Non-Profit - helllloooooo, tax deductible donation!!!) - per episode if you like!

Orson Welles spent thirty-five years trying to put Sir John Falstaff on screen. Chimes at Midnight (1966) is the result: a film drawn from five Shakespeare plays — primarily the two Henry IV parts, with passages from Richard II, Henry V, and The Merry Wives of Windsor — that lifts Falstaff from comic supporting player to tragic protagonist. Welles plays the knight himself, a lumbering, larger-than-life tavern dweller and unlikely father figure to Prince Hal (Keith Baxter), heir to the guilt-haunted Henry IV (John Gielgud). When Hal must choose between loyalty to Falstaff and the demands of the crown, the film becomes what Welles called a lament "for the death of Merrie England." Dismissed by critics on its 1966 Cannes premiere and barely distributed in the United States, the film spent decades trapped in rights disputes — finally reaching audiences properly through the Janus Films/Criterion restoration in 2016.Mike talks with Spencer Parsons and David MacGregor about the film's three-decade gestation across stage and screen, the filmmaking ingenuity behind its legendary Battle of Shrewsbury sequence, the autobiographical dimensions of Welles's performance, and why Chimes at Midnight now stands for many critics as the greatest Shakespeare film ever made.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

All's Well That Ends Well: Michael Bradshaw Flynn On Bringing Back the BardFifteen years ago, staging Shakespeare in Scranton sounded improbable to plenty of people, especially to some New York theater types.The original production was intended as a one-time public performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream in Nay Aug Park. Organizers hoped a modest audience would turn out for the celebrated Bard.Instead, more than 1,000 people packed into the park. In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau speaks with Scranton Shakespeare Festival co-founder Michael Bradshaw Flynn about the unlikely evolution of the festival from a free outdoor performance into a permanent arts organization producing musicals, Shakespeare, new works, and youth programming in downtown Scranton and Northeast Pennsylvania.Flynn discusses balancing a career between New York and Northeastern Pennsylvania, working on Broadway productions including The Front Page, It's Only a Play, and The Nance, (with Nathan Lane) and why regional theater still matters at a time when arts organizations across the country face shrinking audiences and financial instability.The conversation traces Flynn's early immersion in theater through Arts Alive, the Scranton Cultural Center, and local summer stock programs, as well as the influence of a family steeped in storytelling traditions.Now entering its 15th season under the theme Faith, the Scranton Shakespeare Festival will present Much Ado About Nothing, Carousel, Henry V, Saint Joan, Jesus Christ Superstar, youth ensemble productions, and a 15th anniversary gala.For more information, visit https://www.scrantonshakes.com/@Scranton Shakespeare Festival@Michael Bradshaw Flynn@Lisa Champeau@WVIA

Is Shakespeare still Shakespeare even if every word is changed? While Shakespeare's work is often hailed for its universality, its meter, metaphor, and wordplay pose special challenges for translators. How do you convey the rhythm and spirit of Shakespeare's words in a language that follows fundamentally different rules? Author and translator Daniel Hahn explores these questions in his book, If This Be Magic: The Unlikely Art of Shakespeare in Translation. He interviews translators from around the world, providing unique perspectives on Shakespeare's language and impact. Some of Shakespeare's best-known lines can prove the most difficult to capture, like Henry V's “We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.” Even something seemingly simple like Lady Macbeth's “Are you a man?” may be tricky to translate when the word “man” carries different connotations in different languages. In this episode, Hahn dives into the challenges and rewards of translating Shakespeare, exploring not only what is lost in translation, but also what is gained.
