By: BWW News Desk Jun. 28, 2013

Berkshire Theatre Group presents James Goldman's The Lion in Winter, directed by Robert Moss at The Fitzpatrick Main Stage in Stockbridge opening on June 29 at 8pm. Previews begin June 25 at 8pm and closing is on July 13 at 8pm. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

An epic and humorous tale of political strategy and family dynamics, The Lion In Winter, set during Christmas 1183, tells the story of King Henry II, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, and their sons, Richard, Geoffrey and John as they play a deadly game of real life chess; winner takes the throne. Who will come out on top as the ruler of England and the ruler of the family? The Lion in Winter proves just how absurd and lethal family rivalries can be.

The cast includes Jayne Atkinson as Eleanor, Tara Franklin as Alais, Aaron Costa Ganis as Richard, Karl Gregory as John, Tommy Schrider as Geoffrey, Matthew Stucky as Philip and Treat Williams as Henry.

With scenic design by Brett J. Banakis, costume design by David Murin, lighting design by Solomon Weisbard and sound design by Scott Killian.
