Moving on to our discussion of Act II of Henry V! We talk about the expositional nature of the Chorus in Act II, our feeling that Falstaff is missing from the play and the changing cast of comedic figures in the tavern gang trying to make up for his absence, the huge challenge of the prose scenes, the unabashedly pro-English lens of the play, Shakespeare as the myth maker of Henry V as the warrior king, and queering discourse and the othering of the French.
