Presented by Southwest Shakespeare Company
Henry V by William Shakespeare--Whether framed as patriotic spectacle or anti-war critique, Henry V forces audiences to confront enduring questions about power, identity, and the human cost of ambition—making it a vital, dynamic piece for today’s world. Young and eager to prove himself, Henry claims the French throne, which ultimately leads to him declaring war. Against all odds, and after an exhausting march across France, the outnumbered English army wins victory at the climactic Battle of Agincourt. In the end, Henry seeks to unite the countries by marrying a French princess, achieving a hopeful final note. This play touches on important questions for veterans and all of us: How do the effects of combat change a person? Will Henry make it out of this war the same person?
