My friends at the NEW Theatre are presenting Henry V by William Shakespeare as the first performance of their 2011/2012 season. The NEW theatre is where I saw my first live Shakespeare production four years ago. Henry V is one of Shakespeare’s historical plays. Ronald Mangravite adapted the play for the NEW Theatre stage. He also directs and acts in it. Shakespeare lovers will appreciate the performance. It’s a long play, but Mangravite keeps is light and lively. There’s a link on this blog to the NEW theatre if you’d like to purchase tickets or this year’s subscription.
