Kit Harington (Game of Thrones, The Eternals) plays the title role in Shakespeare’s thrilling study of nationalism, war, and the psychology of power. Fresh to the throne, King Henry V throws England into a bloody war with France. When his campaign encounters resistance, this inexperienced new ruler must prove he is fit to lead his country into war. Captured live from the Donmar Warehouse in London, this exciting modern production directed by Max Webster (Life of Pi) explores what it means to be English, and the country’s relationship with Europe, asking: do we ever get the leaders we deserve?
Please note that Henry V includes strobe lighting.
