Henry V from Shakespeare鈥檚 Globe

Shakespeare鈥檚 masterpiece, on stage at one of London鈥檚 most famous landmarks, tells the violent and patriotic story of the ambitious king鈥檚 campaign to recapture the French throne.

Shakespeare鈥檚 masterpiece about the turbulence of life and war in the 15th century. Filmed on the stage of one of London鈥檚 most famous landmarks, it tells the violent, patriotic yet romantic story of Henry鈥檚 campaign to recapture the French throne as he leads his outnumbered troops to victory at the Battle of Agincourt.

Henry V, with its famous 鈥極 for a muse of fire鈥� opening, celebrates the power of language to summon into life vivid characters caught up in the horrors of war, motivated by an ambitious and charismatic king.
Much loved for his performance as Prince Hal in Henry IV Parts 1 and 2, Jamie Parker returns to Hal鈥檚 journey as Henry V. Directed in 2012 by Shakespeare鈥檚 Globe鈥檚 former artistic director Dominic Dromgoole.
