Henry IV From Donmar Kings Cross: All Female Production (2018x9)

:

Recorded with a live audience, this bold contemporary production is presented as if played by inmates of a women's prison. The Donmar Shakespeare Trilogy began in 2012 with an all-female production of Julius Caesar led by Dame Harriet Walter. Set in a women’s prison, the production asked the question, "Who owns Shakespeare?" Two further productions followed: Henry IV in 2014 and The Tempest in 2016, all featuring a diverse company of women.
