Davis McCallum News

Two Tony? Award Winning Companies - The Guthrie Theater of Minneapolis and New York's Acting Company - bring a stunning new production of Shakespeare's Henry V to The New Victory Theater from February 27 through March 8. With 12 actors playing more than 55 roles, director Davis McCallum has injected fresh, fast-paced energy and sharp humor into this bold and beloved Shakespearean epic.

King Henry V will be performed in Phoenix from March 26 thru 29, 2009 and in Phoenix from April 2 to 5, 2009. Young, restless and ambitious, Henry V inherits a troubled crown and seeks to secure his position at home by launching a hasty invasion of France. The charismatic warrior King?s aggressive pursuit of the French crown earns him iconic status, uniting England and France and briefly banishing the civil strife that will long outlive him. This Shakespearean epic expertly balances the thrilling heroics of battle with the painful and complex reactions of men who are sometimes unsure of the justice of their cause.
