- **Event Name**: The Reign of King Edward III
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 17 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Sat, 17 Jan, 2026 at 09:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Edward III, published anonymously in 1596, has become increasingly accepted by scholars as written (at least in part) by William Shakespeare. In this play, King Edward finds himself besieged on two fronts: to the south, France is disputing his claim to the throne, and in the north, the Scots are advancing on a castle held by the young, beautiful Countess of Salisbury, wife of the Earl of Salisbury. After driving back the Scottish army, Edward falls passionately in love with the countess and attempts to bed her. When he finally accepts that her no means no, he sets off to subdue France instead, rather more successfully.

Join us for a fully staged reading of the play as we consider the following questions: What can we learn about early modern drama from watching this rarely produced Elizabethan play? How do we judge this play on its own merits, not in comparison to Shakespeare's  more well-known oeuvre? 

Dr. Emily MacLeod (Penn State Harrisburg), who is currently writing a new introduction to the play for Oxford World's Classics, is directing this presentation as part of her research.
