What's the difference between a king and any other man? Kings need crowns and castles to prove themselves, and so does Henry. Henry the Fifth, that is, of England.

A long and terrible war ensues with huge costs on both sides, including the castle Henry dreamed of having for himself.T0459648996Adapted by Ignace Cornelissen who wrote the Unicorn's much-loved 2012 production, A Winter's Tale, this dynamic and contemporary new version of Henry V will make you wonder whether getting into a fight is really worth all the mess it leaves behind.
