Description
Henry V begins with Henry's transformation from a wild and carefree youth into a wise and inspiring leader. The play takes us through the events leading up to the famous Battle of Agincourt during the Hundred Years' War between England and France. Henry V explores themes of leadership, patriotism, and the complexities of war. It's a thrilling and patriotic play that showcases Henry's remarkable growth and the challenges he faces as a king. Henry IV continues our season-long series Muse of Fire: Shakespeare's Wars of the Roses cycle - nine plays in 25 weeks! Opening Night Special Guest Appearance by the First Lady of North Carolina, the Hon. Kristin Cooper in the role of Queen Joan of England! Admission is free.
