About The Event
Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part 1 sweeps from the royal court to the tavern world in a vivid tale of rebellion, riot, honor, and transformation. As King Henry faces unrest in his kingdom and enemies gather on the battlefield, his son, Prince Hal, seems lost in a life of mischief and revelry. Yet beneath the laughter and disorder, Hal is shaping himself for the destiny that awaits him. Filled with political intrigue, fierce rivalries, stirring battle, and the unforgettable wit of Sir John Falstaff, this thrilling history play explores what it means to claim honor, shoulder responsibility, and step into power.
