Welcome to the Play On Podcasts Series from Next Chapter Podcasts. This is where Theatre meets Podcast, combining the modern-day audio phenomenon with the power of live performance.
Play On Podcasts are epic audio adventures reimagining timeless tales, featuring original music composition and the voices of extraordinarily gifted artists.
A rich young man named Roderigo rages in anger at Iago when he learns that the woman he’s been pining for (and paying Iago to help him win), Desdemona, has just married Othello, a General who Iago reluctantly serves. Iago tells Roderigo that he hates Othello for promoting Michael Cassio to the rank of Lieutenant over him. Together, they go to the house of Desdemona’s father, Brabantio, to tell him that his daughter has been stolen by Othello. Not wanting his hatred of Othello to be known, Iago steals away before Brabantio sees him. Later, as Iago sits with Othello at his lodgings, Michael Cassio arrives with a message from the Duke informing Othello that he’s needed to help fend off an imminent attack by the Turkish fleet. Brabantio arrives at the Duke’s palace at the same time as Othello and publicly accuses him of stealing his daughter. Othello defends himself by speaking honestly of how he won Desdemona’s affection with tales of his adventures. Desdemona enters to defend her choice in marriage and tells her father before the Duke that her allegiance is to Othello. The Duke is sympathetic to the couple and agrees to consider Desdemona’s request that she be allowed to accompany Othello on his voyage to defend Cyprus against the Turks.

In the first half, Korey will help us grapple with the seemingly inherent misogyny of the text (is the play misogynist just because the title character is? Or is there another possible reading?). Then, Elyse will lead us through what an Early Modern audience member would have understood about Ophelia's death and Gertrude's part in it. Specifically we will focus on a cultural knowledge that has largely been lost for the modern audience, and the agency granted to these characters through that understanding. Content warning: we will be discussing abortion, reproductive health, misogyny, and include brief mentions of assault and violence. Please listen with care.
We do not recommend any early modern medical advice. We are not doctors now or in the early modern era.
Also, we may use women, feminine, and female interchangeably to discuss issues pertaining to non-cismale bodies. While we know that people of all genders can be affected by patriarchy as well as become pregnant and need to be able to make their own decisions about reproductive health, we are aligning our language for this episode with that of the early modern writers we are analyzing.

“The Nine Worthies” goes from bad to worse, much to the delight of the audience, who laugh uproariously until the unexpected entrance of Marcade, a messenger from France. The news he delivers brings everyone’s joy to an end, leaving the King and his friends to reconcile with the sudden departure of the Princess and her company. They vow to reunite in one year’s time, provided the men complete works of service prescribed by the Ladies.

The four men, still in their Muscovite disguises, say goodbye to the Ladies, who laugh at their abysmal performances. Soon, the men return undisguised only to be berated by the women for their antics. Berowne blames Boyet for spoiling their fun when Costard arrives to invite them to their play, “The Nine Worthies”. The King resists but the Princess persuades him to see the show. That evening, the Royals attend the play at Howard University’s Ira Aldridge Theater and are delighted by the accidental comedy staged by Holofernes, Don Armado, Moth, Costard and the rest of the players.

Holofernes and Nathaniel pontificate about linguistics over dinner until Armado arrives. Holofernes perks up when Armado describes his friendship with the King, who has asked Armado to present a “delightful performance” for them all to enjoy. Holofernes proposes that they present “The Nine Worthies” and assigns their parts, with Armado as Judas Maccabeus and Moth as Hercules. Back at the Princess’s tent, she and her girlfriends laugh in delight at the love letters and gifts the King and his pals have sent to woo them. Soon, Boyet arrives laughing at what he’s just seen: The King, Berowne, Longaville and Dumaine have put on disguises and plan to court the ladies as “Muscovites”. The Princess convinces her friends to get back at the men by disguising themselves as each other: The Princess will pretend to be Rosaline, Rosaline will pretend to be the Princess, Maria will be Katharine and Katharine will be Maria. The suitors arrive in their Muscovite costumes with the Howard Marching band in tow and end up getting completely fooled by the ladies.

Nathaniel and Holofernes congratulate each other on their handling of Berowne’s letter and agree to use it as an example of bad writing. Back at Howard University’s Clark Hall, Berowne paces nervously, ruminating on his love for Rosaline. He hides when King Navarre enters, reading a love letter he wrote to the Princess out loud to himself. Navarre takes cover when Longaville enters and reads his own letter to Margaret, and Longaville hides when Dumaine enters to read the letter he’s writing to Maria. Soon, all four friends step forward to accuse each other of hypocrisy, with Berowne taking the lead in shaming the others. It all comes to a screeching halt when Jacquenetta enters with Berowne’s letter, which he desperately tries–and fails–to snatch back. With everything finally revealed, Berowne convinces his friends to abandon their vows and strive instead to be the best lovers they can be in winning the affections of the Princess and her friends.

In a rehearsal room at the Howard Conservatory of Music, Don Armado debates the nature of love with Moth before releasing Costard from bondage to deliver a love letter he wrote to Jacquenetta. Costard celebrates his payment and is about to set off on his errand when Berowne hires him to deliver a love letter he wrote to Rosaline. Off campus, the Princess and her entourage admire the king performing dressage on his horse as they prepare to hunt. Costard arrives to deliver Berowne’s letter to Rosaline but accidentally delivers Armado’s letter, which Boyet reads out loud to the delight of all the ladies as they set off on the deer hunt. Later, the scholars Nathaniel and Holofernes critique the deer hunt on a bus ride back to campus. Jaquenetta gets on board and asks Nathaniel to read the letter Costard delivered to her out loud because she cannot read it herself. Holofernes realizes that the letter has been delivered to the wrong person. She tells Jaquenetta to bring it to the King. Jaquenetta sets off, taking Costard with her.

Introducing...Everyday Shakespeare. Hosts Caroline Bicks and Michelle Ephraim are Shakespeare professors and close friends who love to bond over the ways Shakespeare’s plays help them through their everyday dramas.
Episode 3: "Let's Talk About Sex" Sex can be fun and exciting, but it also raises all kinds of issues about power, control, and freedom. In this episode, we’ll be looking at how people in Shakespeare’s day were understanding sexual anatomy, pleasure, and reproduction, and discuss how the debates and anxieties that surfaced back then connect to some of our present-day divisions. We’ll be using doctor-approved language—from multiple centuries—but we’ll also be talking about sexual pleasure and consent, and referencing scenarios that some may find difficult to hear. Listener discretion advised.

Costard is put under the guard of Don Armado, who continues to dote on Jaquenetta. Meanwhile, the Princess, chauffeured by her Counsellor (Boyet) arrives on campus at Howard University in her Model T along with her Ladies-In-Waiting (Rosaline, Maria and Katharine). She sends Boyet to announce their arrival to the King of Navarre, who sends back word that he cannot house the Ladies under his roof but will provide shelter in a tent on campus, instead. The Princess is offended and demands that the King answer her father’s suit: that he return the land of Aquitaine to France. The King counters that her father has not paid him back the money he lent for her father’s war. The Princess accuses Navarre of lying and asks Boyet to provide proof of payment. Boyet says it will take another day for that proof to arrive. As they banter, Berowne tries to flirt with Rosaline, who turns him away. Dumaine and Longaville are smitten with Katharine and Maria, and ask Boyet for their names. He teasingly obliges. After the men depart, Boyet tells the Princess he believes the King is in love with her. She laughs it off as she strolls to their newly erected tent.

The King of Navarre gathers together with his best friends (Longaville, Dumaine and Berowne) in the library at Howard University where he gets them to agree that they will devote themselves entirely to their studies without dating or indulging in food, drink or sleep for three full years. Berowne protests and reminds the King that the Princess of France is going to arrive soon to plead a case on behalf of her ailing father. The King promises to handle the situation and Berowne agrees to stick with his vow despite his reservations. They decide they’ll amuse themselves during their downtime by laughing at the antics of Don Adriano de Armado, a visiting scholar from Spain who is hilariously full of himself. Almost as soon as the King’s proclamation is issued, Sir Anthony Dull delivers a letter from Armado accusing Costard, a groundskeeper at Howard, of having an affair with Jaquenetta, a young lady who lives nearby. The King punishes Costard with a week of fasting on bread and water. Meanwhile, Armado confesses privately to his young friend and confidante, a Custodial Assistant named Moth, that he is painfully in love with Jaquenetta and vows to win her affections.

We’re changing things up a bit today and bringing you a preview of a new podcast we’re enjoying and think you will, too. Where There’s a Will: Finding Shakespeare searches for the surprising places Shakespeare shows up outside the theater. Host Barry Edelstein, artistic director at one of the country’s leading Shakespeare theaters, and co-host writer and director Em Weinstein, ask what is it about Shakespeare that’s given him a continuous afterlife in all sorts of unexpected ways? You’ll hear Shakespeare doing rehabilitative work in a maximum security prison, helping autistic children to communicate, in the mouths of U.S. presidents, and even at the center of a deadly riot in New York City. In this preview, Barry takes us into California’s Centinela State Prison for a one-of-a-kind production of Shakespeare’s English history plays performed by incarcerated individuals. Barry asks: What makes Shakespeare a force of transformation and transcendence behind bars?

Chaos reigns on the battlefield of Agincourt, where Pistol encounters a French soldier and spares his life in exchange for his money, thanks to the assistance of the bilingual Boy who has trailed him from England. Fortune eventually turns against France, and Dauphin, Orleans, Bourbon and Constable mourn their fate. Henry learns of the death of the Duke of York, who led the vanguard against the French army, as Fluellen and Gower lament the slaughter of the children who were left to guard their luggage, including the Boy who had accompanied Pistol. Henry is enraged by their senseless deaths, vowing to finish the fight without mercy. Finally, Montjoy arrives to give word of France’s surrender. As he celebrates with Fluellen, Henry spots Williams, the soldier he’d quarreled with while visiting his troops incognito the night before. Henry summons Williams and reveals himself as the adversary he vowed to fight. Williams is contrite, but Henry rewards his pluck and valor with a glove full of coins. At last, the tally of the dead is brought to the King, and together he and his nobles marvel at their lopsided victory.

As dawn approaches, the French nobles (Dauphin, Constable and Orleans) get in their saddles, swaggering with confidence.

Outside the French village of Corbie, Gower and Fluellen meet a fiery Pistol, who asks Fluellen to beg leniency from Exeter on behalf of Bardolph, who has been sentenced to death for stealing from a church. Fluellen refuses and Pistol storms off, enraged. King Henry arrives to learn that the English have kept control of a strategically valuable bridge. He also learns of the death of his old friend Bardolph, and promises that all such offenders will get the same punishment. Soon after, a French Ambassador, Montjoy, arrives to deliver a warning to King Henry from the King of France: Turn back now or die. Henry responds that he will march on, and if they try to stop him, he’ll soak the ground with French blood. Later that night, in the French camp outside Agincourt, Constable, Bourbon and Orleans tease the Dauphin about his love for his horse, and joke about him after he leaves. A messenger arrives to tell them the English are lurking very near their tents, but they shrug off the threat, confident of their strength and numbers. Only Bourbon expresses any sense of foreboding. The Chorus describes Henry visiting his soldiers at their tents and lookouts, boosting their morale. Later, as he sits with his thoughts, feeling optimistic about what lies ahead, Henry is surprised by the sudden appearance of Pistol.

King Henry’s friends from his wilder days, Bardolph, Nym and Pistol, gather at the London Boarding House of Pistol’s new bride, Nell, who had been engaged to Nym. Pistol and Nym argue and fight until they are interrupted by a young Boy who breaks the news that their great friend, Sir John Falstaff, is gravely ill and needs their help. In Southampton, Henry discovers that three of his closest friends and advisors, Lord Scroop of Masham, Richard Earl of Cambridge and Thomas Grey, Knight of Northumberland, have committed treason by conspiring against him with the King of France. He has them executed at once. Back at Nell’s Boarding House, the Hostess (Nell), Pistol, Bardolph, Nym and the Boy mourn the death of Falstaff, then depart to join King Henry’s army. King Charles the Beloved of France, meanwhile, sensing that Henry is not to be trifled with, expresses his unease over England’s imminent invasion. As his court nonchalantly watches a jousting tournament, the King of France berates his son, the Dauphin, for underestimating the power of England, and instructs his princes to arm themselves in preparation for war.

With the recent death of his father, King Henry IV, the young Henry V must live down his wild past and prove himself capable of ruling a restless kingdom. With the encouragement of his advisors, Lords Canterbury and Ely, Henry advances a dubious claim to the throne of France based on his ancestry and on a questionable interpretation of arcane land laws. The Prince of France, known as the Dauphin, responds to Henry’s claim by sending him a treasure chest full of tennis balls. Henry, furious, tells his troops and nobles to prepare for war.

In this episode, Jacke talks to investigative journalist Michael Blanding, author of In Shakespeare’s Shadow, about a renegade scholar named Dennis McCarthy’s theory that Shakespeare may have drawn upon a previously unknown source – the lost plays of Sir Thomas North – and how Blanding himself joined the pursuit of searching for evidence to support McCarthy’s theory.

We want to tell you about a podcast you'll like if you like Play On! It's a musical fiction podcast called It Makes A Sound, and it's about a daughter and a mother and the origin story of an unlikely cult sensation. Season one follows Deirdre Gardner on a quest to revive the sound of a generation off a busted cassette tape from 1992, and wake up her decrepit hometown of Rosemary Hills Golf Course Community to all that’s been forgotten.

Kent reunites with Cordelia at the Highland Hospital in Oakland, where with a doctor they witness King Lear’s awakening and recognition of his youngest daughter.Meanwhile, at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, Regan confesses to Edmund that she fears he is not loyal only to her, but also to her sister. Edmund tries to reassure her, but he is interrupted by Goneril and Albany, who arrive to negotiate on how to proceed with their battle plans. Once Goneril, Regan and Edmund are gone, Edgar slips in, disguised, and delivers a message to Albany to summon him upon their victory. Elsewhere, Edmund takes a moment to contemplate his future, vowing to win the battle and dispense with Albany when the time comes. Later, on Market Street in The Warfield, Edgar finds a place for Gloucester to take refuge as the battle rages. Once he learns that Lear’s forces have been defeated, he encourages his father not to lose hope and together, they flee to another refuge. In the Fillmore Auditorium in The Cow Palace, Edmund savors his victory as Lear and Cordelia comfort each other in shackles. Edmund sends them to prison and instructs an army captain to follow his command concerning their fate. Albany arrives to challenge Edmund’s authority in dealing with the prisoners, leading to an argument between Edmund, Albany, Goneril, and Regan, who becomes increasingly unwell as the scene progresses. The fight culminates in Albany accusing Edmund and Goneril of treason, vowing to present his proof when the trumpets sound. Edmund accepts the challenge and dares his accuser to approach.

Bathing seductively in her home, Regan uses all her powers of persuasion to delay Oswald’s delivery of a message from Goneril to Edmund (and to warn Goneril to back off of Edmund, whose heart she thinks she’s won), telling Oswald to kill Gloucester at once if he ever sees him. Meanwhile, Gloucester asks Poor Tom (Edgar) to lead him to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, where he intends to jump to his death. Edgar tricks his father into thinking he’s at the railing of the bridge, and Gloucester, falling forward, faints on level ground. As his father wakes, Edgar takes on a new persona, convincing Gloucester that Poor Tom was a phantom and that Gloucester has miraculously survived his fall, giving him renewed faith and hope. They are interrupted by King Lear, who rides in on a rusted bicycle, railing in fits of madness and clarity at everything he encounters until he recognizes and soothes Gloucester, only to run away again when Cordelia’s soldiers spot him. Edgar leads his father from the bridge to a cable car, where Oswald, riding in the back of the cable car, sees them and tries to stab Gloucester to death. He is killed instead by Edgar, who discovers Goneril’s letter to Edmund in Oswald’s pocket. Father and son flee from the scene as the police approach.

Cornwall is gravely injured by a servant trying to defend Gloucester, who has been captured and tortured for aiding King Lear. Gloucester is blinded and cast out of his own home into Golden Gate Park, where he encounters “Poor Tom” (Edgar), who comes to his aid without revealing his true identity as Gloucester’s son. The next morning, Goneril receives Edmund in her home and allies herself with him before a bitter feud with her now estranged husband, Albany. They are interrupted by news of Cornwall’s death and Gloucester’s blinding, which drives a wedge even further between Goneril and Albany. Meanwhile, Kent confers with Lear’s gentleman in the French camp at Joaquin Miller Park in Oakland and advances plans with him to further assist the King. Elsewhere in the camp, Cordelia receives news of her father’s poor health and sends soldiers to find him and bring him to her for aid and comfort.

Lear rails at the raging storm on the cliffs of the Marin Headlands as The Fool and Kent (disguised as Caius) beg him to seek shelter in a nearby shack, where they discover Edgar disguised as “Poor Tom”. Meanwhile, Gloucester confides in Edmund his misgivings about the King’s treatment, sharing intelligence he’s gathered concerning plots to avenge Lear. Edmund gives this news to Cornwall, who rewards him by making him Earl and vows to take revenge on Edmund’s father. Later, Gloucester finds Lear and his companions in the shack and persuades them to take shelter in his basement, where Lear stages a mock trial of his daughters before finally falling asleep. Moments later, Gloucester returns with news of an imminent plot to kill the King, and smuggles them all out of his house into a carriage bound for Dover, where he promises they will be safe.

Edgar goes into hiding as “Poor Tom”, a beggar in Golden Gate Park. Lear arrives at Gloucester’s mansion to find his servant Caius (Kent) locked in restraints. Furious, he lashes out at Cornwall, who defends his actions, and Regan, who tells him to return to Goneril and ask her forgiveness. As Lear fumes at her, Goneril arrives in the courtyard to the open embrace of her sister. Together, they whittle away at Lear’s entourage as a storm approaches, eventually telling him to dismiss all his knights. Lear rails at them and vows revenge before blindly setting out into the storm alone. Caius follows him with The Fool as Cornwall orders Gloucester to shut the doors. Later, as the storm rages in the Marin Headlands, Kent finds Lear’s Gentleman and informs him that French troops are secretly gathering in the ports to take advantage of the division between Albany and Cornwall. She urges him to deliver a message to Cordelia on Lear’s behalf.

Synopsis.
The King curses Goneril for her inhospitable treatment and sends Caius (Kent) to find Regan. Back in his car with the Fool, Lear worries about his sanity and the Fool does his best to cheer him up. Later, outside Gloucester’s mansion, Edmund gets word from Curan that Cornwall and Regan will soon arrive at his father’s house, and that there is likely going to be a war between Cornwall and Albany over their territory. Edmund makes the most of the opportunity by convincing Edgar to flee from the house for his own safety, then pretends he was attacked by his brother for not going along with his plot against their father. He’s immediately embraced by Cornwall, who promises to promote him. That evening, Caius arrives at Gloucester’s mansion and gets into a fight with Regan’s servant, Oswald. Gloucester, Edmund and Cornwall break it up and question Caius, who insults the Duke and all his company with his blunt talk. In return, Cornwall and Regan order that Caius be put in restraints for the rest of the night, despite Gloucester’s objection. Once alone, Kent drops his “Caius” disguise and reads a letter he secretly received from Cordelia, in which she says she may be able to resolve the conflict in Lear’s kingdom.

Synopsis.
In the garden outside Gloucester’s Fillmore District mansion, a furious Edmund conspires to take from his brother what he feels he deserves from his father. Having set the trap, he drives to a nightclub where he sets up his brother Edgar for a fall from grace. Elsewhere, on an ocean beach outside of Goneril’s mansion in outer-Richmond, San Francisco, Goneril instructs her servant, Oswald, to treat her father with disdain when he arrives, in the hope that it will push him to go to Regan’s house instead. Inside Goneril’s house, the exiled Kent has returned, disguised as a man-servant, Caius, in order to gain access to Lear. When the King arrives on the sundeck of the house, Kent (now Caius) greets him and wins his affection by shaming Oswald for disrespecting him. Soon after, the Fool arrives and berates Lear through thinly veiled humor for disowning Cordelia and giving his power over to his other two daughters. Finally, Goneril enters and greets her father coldly, telling him to get rid of his unruly knights and keep only the older ones who know their place. Lear defends his Knights and lashes out at Goneril, voicing his regret for shunning Cordelia.

Synopsis.
As a large crowd of invited guests gather in the ballroom of King Lear’s home in San Francisco’s Fillmore District to hear his much-anticipated announcement regarding his plans for the future of his kingdom, the Earl of Gloucester gossips with Lear’s trusted advisor, Kent, about the King’s shaky health, which is evident in his plans to split the kingdom among his daughters and their husbands, including his unwed daughter, Cordelia, who will choose to marry either the Duke of Burgundy or the King of France this very evening. Gloucester introduces Kent to his illegitimate son, Edmund, who he describes as well-spoken, but not made of the same stuff as his legitimate son, Edgar. Their conversation is interrupted when the King enters with Cordelia and his two eldest daughters, Goneril and Regan, each accompanied by their husbands, Albany and Cornwall. In lavish fashion, Lear announces his plans to divide his kingdom equally among his three daughters, provided they try to out-do each other in a contest to say which of them loves him the most. Goneril and Regan oblige him with lofty pronouncements of devotion, for which they are rewarded with vast lands and resources. Cordelia, on the other hand, declines to participate in the contest, saying nothing but that she loves her father as a daughter should, no more nor less. In return, Lear disowns Cordelia and splits the kingdom between his two eldest daughters and their husbands. Kent tries to defend Cordelia and is exiled from the kingdom. The Duke of Burgundy abandons his suit of the now disinherited Cordelia. The King of France, however, sees Cordelia for who she is and asks for her hand in marriage, which Lear accepts, vowing never to see his daughter again. Cordelia says goodbye to her sisters and leaves with the King of France. Goneril and Regan linger afterward to marvel at their fortune, and talk privately about their need to ally themselves against their father if he tries to cling to power.

As skeptical citizens discuss whether or not to vote for Coriolanus, Menenius tries to persuade him to speak kindly to them. Instead, he mockingly begs for their votes, but still wins enough to be approved by the Tribunes.

Cominius names Martius “Coriolanus” and the Senate rewards his bravery by making him a Roman Consul, but suspicions linger that Coriolanus cares nothing for the people and is only serving himself.
Welcome to the second episode of the Play On Podcasts' Series Coriolanus. Synopsis:Cominius heaps praise on Martius for his bravery and officially names him “Coriolanus” as their soldiers applaud; Aufidius and Adrian lament their defeat but bide their time for a turn of fortune. Later, in the bathhouse, Menenius berates Brutus and Sicinius for criticizing Martius’s pride, then goes to meet Volumnia and Virgilia to await Caius Martius Coriolanus’s return to Rome. Receiving a hero’s welcome, Coriolanus is urged by his mother, Volumnia, to run for the office of Consul. Brutus and Sicinius vow to undermine his current popularity by reminding the people of Coriolanus’s disdain for them. Inside the Capitol, Menenius and Cominius lobby the Senate to reward Coriolanus’s triumph by making him Consul. The Senate agrees and Coriolanus accepts the honor, but refuses to address the people, asking the Tribunes to go to the public on his behalf. Brutus and Sicinius leave the Capitol to tell the people what happened in the Capitol.

Calling for an end to democracy, the brilliant Roman General and war hero Caius Martius (Coriolanus) shames the starving and rioting citizens of Rome for their lack of military service. Meanwhile, the Volcian army, led by Martius’s blood enemy Tullus Aufidius, marches towards Rome.
Welcome to the premiere episode of the Play On Podcasts' Series Coriolanus.
Synopsis:
The citizens of Rome, starving for grain during a post-war food shortage, riot against the aristocracy and blame the brilliant Roman General and war hero Caius Martius (Coriolanus) for their troubles. Menenius Agrippa, a Roman patrician, defends Caius Martius until Martius arrives and begins to mock and shame the people for their lack of military service, calling for an end to democracy. As he’s speaking, word arrives that a Volcian army is in the field. Martius leaves to fight them. In response to his speech, two Roman tribunes, Brutus and Sicinius, secretly denounce Martius and vow to keep an eye on him. Meanwhile, the Roman army, including their general Cominius, meets the Volcian forces and their commander, Tullus Aufidius, at the Volcian city of Coriolis. Martius’s wife, Virgilia, and his mother, Volumnia, await his return as Martius leads a rally against Coriolis, where he is locked within the city walls. He survives and single-handedly conquers Coriolis, then joins Cominius in fighting other Volcian forces elsewhere in the field, where he ends up in single combat with Aufidius, who is dragged away from the battle by his own soldiers.

Welcome to the third episode of the Play On Podcasts Series A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Synopsis:
In the forest, Puck stumbles upon the city workers, who have unwittingly set up their rehearsal right next to the sleeping fairy queen. He uses his magic to transform Bottom’s head into the head of an ass, and the players all run scared out of their wits through the forest, waking Titania, who instantly falls madly in love with Bottom. Puck delivers this news to Oberon, who applauds his work until he discovers that Puck put the love potion in the wrong Athenian’s eyes.

Welcome to the 2nd episode of the Play On Podcasts Series A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Synopsis:
Titania offers to restore the balance of nature with Oberon but refuses his demand to hand over custody of her fairy child to him. In revenge, Oberon sends Puck to fetch a flower that has a magic potion which, when dropped on anyone’s eyelids, will make them fall madly in love with the next thing they see. Meanwhile, Lysander and Hermia lose their way in the woods and fall asleep as Demetrius and Helena hunt for them. Oberon witnesses how badly Demetrius treats Helena and directs Puck to apply the magic potion to Demetrius’s eyes as well as Titania’s. Puck drops the potion in Titania’s eyes but mistakes Lysander for Demetrius. When Helena finds Lysander and wakes him up, he instantly falls in love with her. Helena runs from him, Lysander follows her, and Hermia is left alone in the woods to fend for herself.

Welcome to the second episode of the Play On Podcasts Series Pericles.
Synopsis:
Pericles arrives in Tarsus on a Peace vessel filled with stores of wheat and grain which he offers to feed the starving people of Tarsus, thus winning the loyalty and adoration of King Cleon, Queen Dionyza, and all their subjects. His respite is brief, as Helicanus sends word from Tyre that Antiochus’s forces are in hot pursuit and Pericles must flee again. Taking to sea once more, his ship is wrecked by a violent storm, leaving him the sole survivor on the shores of Pentapolis, where he is rescued and clothed by a group of fishermen. They discover Pericles’s shield with his coat of armor in their nets, providing him with one single possession by which to vouch for his name. So cloaked, Pericles goes to the palace of the good King Simonides, who is holding a jousting tournament in honor of his daughter.
