About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Falstaff in Rebellion; or The Mutineers of Eastcheap by John W. Postgate. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. In Shakespeare's Henry IV, Falstaff gets involved in quelling a rebellion and gains Hal's disfavor for doing the job so poorly and pocketing most of the funds. This is not that story. But instead, this rebellion is a good time with Falstaff, his cronies, Shakespeare (yes), and a number of Shakespeare's other characters in a comic romp.... (NOTE: there are a few racist comments reflecting the time when the play was written.) - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: Sir John Falstaff: ARodrigo William Shakespeare: ToddHW Ben Jonson: HelloCentral Sir Toby Belch: Alan Mapstone Robert Greene: Kyle L.
