Elizabeth Dennehy (Star Trek Picard, Horizon: An American Saga) is our Text Detective, joining us to talk about Margaret's "Brave Warriors" speech in Henry VI, Act 1 Scene 4. Tune in to hear how a speech can go from pre-meditated to spontaneous (and how that can cost the character), about kicking the box, and how monosyllabic words can signify different things at different times.
We also discuss Elizabeth's work as a teacher, her father Brian Dennehy, and how Shakespeare is like Pro Wrestling.
