    Henry V: Episode 2

    “Now entertain conjecture of a time when creeping murmur and the poring dark fills the wide vessel of the universe. From camp to camp through the foul gloom of night, the hum of either army stilly sounds…” The English fight their way across the country, but the Battle of Agincourt looms. The French far outnumber King Henry and his troops, and Henry prays for wisdom to deliver an impassioned speech on the morning of the battle. England prevails, and the French surrender. Peace negotiations will unite the two kingdoms. // Discover more about UNCSA's production of "Henry V" at uncsa.edu/henryv.

    Henry V: Episode 1

    “O for a Muse of fire that, would ascend the brightest heaven of invention. A kingdom for a stage, princes to act and monarchs to behold the swelling scene! Then should the warlike Harry, like himself, assume the port of Mars; and at his heels, leash’d in like hounds, should famine, sword and fire crouch for employment…” The young King Henry V has assumed the throne, but the people of England are restless and dissatisfied. King Henry stakes claim to rule over France, but a strong rebuke from the French royal family follows. He decides to invade France. The King and his country prepare for war, as a plot against his life is discovered. // Discover more about UNCSA's production of "Henry V" at uncsa.edu/henryv.
