The Lion in Winter

One of the world’s most powerful men and his equally savvy wife engage in a backstabbing battle of wills while they carve out an empire. This family feud is full of witty barbs and political intrigue in an atmosphere charged with threats of daggers, swords and dungeons. This entertaining and compelling play about King Henry II, his scheming wife, Eleanor, and their greedy sons was made into an Academy Award-winning film and was a successful Broadway revival last year.
