This term, we will explore the third major category of plays by Shakespeare, those based on British history.  The five selected will be Richard II, Henry IV Parts 1 and 2, Henry V, and Richard III.  Each is a story of king, but also of the country going through conflict, with others but mainly with itself.  Oh, we also meet one of the great comic characters: Sir John Falstaff.  There is a lot of real history involved in these plays, like the very true battle of Agincourt in Henry V, but it is also the Bard’s interpretation of the people and times, and maybe of his own times.

We are very fortunate to have supporters who contribute to the program. These donations help us offset the costs of program, provide scholarships to anyone in need, and build the Center so it can serve as an asset to the northern Pittsburgh region.

To make a donation to the program, please visit La Roche University's donation page here. In the "Fund" drop down, select "Other" then type "Center for Lifelong Learning" or "CLL".
