Step into the world of Shakespeare’s iconic second Henriad as we witness the thrilling journey of King Henry V, a leader whose evolution from the carefree prince of Henry IV to a determined monarch is nothing short of remarkable. Persuaded by the English clergy of his ancestral claim to the French throne, Henry faces the haughty Dauphins mockery, symbolized by a gift of tennis balls. In response, he boldly commands the invasion of France, igniting a fierce and costly conflict that becomes the backdrop for one of Shakespeare’s most patriotic narratives. Through Henry, we explore the themes of national pride, courage, and determination, all expressed in breathtaking poetic speeches that have solidified his legendary status. Yet, beneath the surface lies Shakespeare’s subtle critique of power, as we see glimpses of Henry’s manipulative tactics and hear from the soldiers who serve under him. The return of beloved characters like Bardolph and Pistol offers much-needed comic relief amidst the grim realities of war, while new faces challenge the glorified vision of conquest. With a talented cast of three men (Craig Franklin, Tomas Peter, and Brad “Hamlet” Filippone) and four women (Sonia, Jenn Broda, Kelly S. Taylor, and Sandra Schmit), this performance promises to leave a lasting impression. Think you know Shakespeare?
