Henry V

by William Shakespeare

 

October 25 - November 9, 2014

 

The startling inaugural production of New Fortune Theatre.

 

A savage, funny, touching and brutal play about war, the men who wage it, and the price it exacts from all who are touched by it.

 

Opening this October 25, on the feast day of Crispin, almost 600 years to the day since an exhausted English force, led by a newly-crowned young king, turned at bay to meet a larger, fresher, better armed French army in a muddy field, near an obscure castle called Agincourt.
