Christian Camargo and Elizabeth Waterston will join previously announced participants Richard Easton, Jeremy Strong, and Professor David Scott Kastan for Politics, Prince Hal, and the Making of a Leader, presented by The Shakespeare Society at the Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College on Monday, November 3 at 6:30pm. Liev Schreiber who had been announced to participate has had to withdraw due to a scheduling conflict.

The event -- which looks at Shakespeare's most successful political leader, Henry V, on the eve of our own presidential elections -- will feature reading selections from the plays Henry IV, Parts I and II and Henry V. In addition, Kastan will examine Prince Hal's development as a politician looking at the ways impersonation, role-playing and language are used politically and theatrically.
