Henry V

Author(s): William Shakespeare
Company: Shakespeare’s Globe and Headlong, with Leeds Playhouse and Royal & Derngate, Northampton
Running time: 2h 30min approx

Henry, the young and newly crowned king, is impatient to assert control over the people of England. Having received a humiliating gift from overseas, his bruised ego leads him to double down on a military invasion abroad in a bid to expand his green and pleasant land. But at what devastating cost?

Performed in the intimate, indoor Sam Wanamaker Playhouse for the first time, witness Henry’s bombastic pursuit of power, throwing into question what it really means to be English.
