Co-Artistic Director Tamara Harvey directs Alfred Enoch, who returns to the RSC as Shakespeare’s rebellious, carefree young man who becomes the King of England overnight.
Once a reckless prince, now King of England – and at war with France.
Henry V follows a young ruler thrust into power as he attempts to unite a divided nation and lead his people into battle. As the drums of war grow louder and the cost of ambition becomes devastatingly clear, Henry must prove himself worthy of the crown.
Shakespeare’s rousing and provocative history play explores leadership, patriotism and the human price of power.
