Merrigong Theatre Company present Bell Shakespeare’s HENRY 5, one of Shakespeare’s finest historical plays, at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre from April 30 to May 3, 2025.
Restlessly interrogating and updating Shakespeare’s classic for the modern world, Bell Shakespeare returns with a new production of Henry 5. Shakespeare’s questions of navigating leadership and culpability, judging heroic acts, and reconciling difficult truths come squarely into a 21st-century lens.
Young Prince Hal has left his wayward adolescence behind and assumed the mantle of kingship. Following a humiliating insult by the French prince, King Henry launches England into a war with France to claim the throne he believes is rightfully his. Against all odds, he leads his troops from despair to climactic victory at the Battle of Agincourt. He is hailed as a warrior and a hero. But at what cost?
