The Arkansas Shakespeare Theatre, under the new leadership of Mary Ruth Stewart, in collaboration with Shake on the Lake presents Henry V ! Sponsored by SnapOn.
Shake on the Lake brings its signature fast, fun, and physical approach to Shakespeare by creating a performance spectacle by our stellar company of five professional Arkansas-based artists, doubling and tripling roles, making Henry V a theatrical tour de force!
Henry V is a story of a reluctant leader, one who is thrust into a position of power, rebels against it, but ultimately sees the importance of self-sacrifice for the people and the good of the nation. With the help of friends, foes, and ghosts from the past, including the comic knight, Sir John Falstaff, Henry V takes us on journey through English history against their bitter foe, France, culminating in Henry's infamous St. Crispin's Day speech before the historic Battle of Agincourt.
Running time: 90 minutes
In case of inclement weather, the show will be moved to the Red Curtain Theatre, 913 Oak. St, Conway, 72032.
