Richard II: King Richard neglects his subjects and spends lavishly, giving rise to his charismatic cousin Henry Bolingbroke. As the battle to rule England approaches, Richard's supporters abandon him for his rival. Will Richard learn what it means to be a king before he loses the crown? Written entirely in verse, Richard II contains some of Shakespeare's most thrilling language. Director Michael Kahn's previous examination of this troubled leader was hailed by The New York Times as "an evening of dynamic jolts and surprises." Richard II plays in repertory with Henry V.
Henry V: Young and brash King Henry V of England takes his nation to war with France. As he leads his troops into combat and experiences the true costs of war firsthand, Henry discovers that the challenges of leadership are greater than he ever imagined. From Henry's rousing battle speeches to his quieter moments courting the Princess of France, Shakespeare explores what makes a man a king ... and a king a man. Henry V is directed by Associate Artistic Director David Muse, whose Julius Caesar was praised by Washingtonian as "one of the best productions of this or any season." Henry V plays in repertory with Richard II.
