War, family rivalry and comedy are all rolled into one in a Shakespearian play to be screened at Artrix on 28th May. Henry IV’s crown is under threat from enemies both foreign and domestic as he prepares for war in the RSC’s production of Henry IV Part 1.
Having deposed the previous king, he is only too aware how tenuous his position is, and the price to be paid if he falters. Meanwhile Prince Hal is languishing in the taverns and brothels of London, revelling in the company of his friend and comic genius the notorious Sir John Falstaff.
With the onset of the war, Hal and Falstaff are thrust into the brutal reality of the battlefield, where Hal must confront his responsibilities to family and throne.
Antony Sher returns to the RSC to play the infamous Falstaff. He is joined by Jasper Britton as Henry IV and Alex Hassell as Prince Hal.
Henry IV Part II will be screened on 2nd July.
RSC Live (delayed) presents Henry IV Part 1 on screen at Artrix cinema on Wednesday 28th May at 7.00 pm. Tickets cost £14
