Henry V
King Henry lays claim to the throne of France and finds himself caught up in a battle not only for the country but the hearts and minds of his followers.
by William Shakespeare
A new production of Shakespeare's hugely popular history play.
As King Henry's ambitions lead him to invade France, he finds himself facing daunting challenges, battling to win not only the throne but the hearts and minds of his followers. Henry soon discovers, for all his fine words, that an imperfect world can call for imperfect actions.
