New York City
The night before he leads his troops into battle, The Prince of Homborg strips off his uniform and goes sleepwalking. Moonstruck, his mind races with a young man’s fantasies — love, ambition, and victory. But when morning comes, a single reckless act of disobedience sets in motion a chain of events that seems to lead inexorably to the one thing he never dreamt would happen: his own death. The Royal Shakespeare Company presents Heinrich Von Kleist’s play in a new version by Neil Bartlett with David Bryer.
