Henry VIII

By William Shakespeare & John Fletcher
Directed by Liana Olear

A chance meeting, a single dance can change a man’s life – what he believes, who his friends are, whose advice he listens to. If the man happens to be a king, his country is swept along with his passions, leaving his courtiers, his archbishops and his queens to maneuver the unstable political landscape. This rarely performed play is infamous for excessive pageantry and pandering to royalty; strip away the glitz, and what’s left is a very human drama of intrigue and duty, ambition and love.
