Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) plays the title role in Shakespeare’s thrilling study of nationalism, war and the psychology of power. Captured live from the Donmar Warehouse in London.
Fresh to the throne, King Henry V launches England into a bloody war with France. When his campaign encounters resistance, this inexperienced new ruler must prove he is fit to guide a country into war.
Directed by Max Webster (Life of Pi), this exciting modern production explores what it means to be English and our relationship to Europe, asking: do we ever get the leaders we deserve?
"A broodingly impressive production. Kit Harington thrills and chills in this broodingly intelligent take on Shakespeare’s war play. Webster’s production is carefully structured to make the story as lucid as humanly possible (Time Out ★★★★)
"A victory." (The Daily Telegraph ★★★★)
"Violent, devastating, and astonishing in its power ... appalling in its violence." (The I ★★★★)
"Kit Harington is resoundly good." (The Times ★★★★)
"... exciting, bleak and real ..." (The Daily Mail ★★★★)
