Show Information:
Henry IV
Set in a kingdom plagued with rebellion, treachery, and shifting alliances in the period following the deposition of King Richard II, the two parts of Henry IV focus especially on the development of Prince Hal (later Henry V) from wastrel to ruler rather than on the title character. Shakespeare presents an all-encompassing thematic exploration of family, honor, power, and warfare through this historical tale.
