Henry VI Part 1 (1592) by William Shakespeare
S3E38 Today, we begin an ambitious podcast trilogy on Shakespeare's earliest history plays - the three parts of Henry VI. Picking up from where we left off, today's play opens with the funeral of Henry V. For his infant son, the first phase of his reign will be threatened by a French renaissance, and rumbles of civil war in his own country.
Joining Ash to discuss the Wars of the Roses and Joan of Arc are Hailey Bachrach and Owen Horsley, who have worked on adaptations of the plays for the Globe and the RSC.
And finally, selections from all three plays are read by actor Danielle Farrow. You can find more information about all three contributors below:
