Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more. – Henry 5, Act 3, Scene 1
Young Prince Hal has left his wayward adolescence behind and assumed the mantle of kingship. Following a humiliating insult by the French prince, King Henry launches England into a war with France to claim the throne he believes is rightfully his.
Against all odds, he leads his troops from despair to climactic victory at the Battle of Agincourt. He is hailed a warrior, and a hero. But at what cost?
This riveting new production is directed by Marion Potts (Othello, Hamlet), who returns to Bell Shakespeare after 15 years, and stars dynamic newcomer JK Kazzi.
