Young and brash King Henry V of England takes his nation to war with France. As he leads his troops into combat and experiences the true costs of war firsthand, Henry discovers that the challenges of leadership are greater than he ever imagined. From Henry’s rousing battle speeches to his quieter moments courting the Princess of France, Shakespeare explores what makes a man a king … and a king a man. Henry V is directed by Associate Artistic Director David Muse, whose Julius Caesar was praised by Washingtonian as “one of the best productions of this or any season.”
