The Henriad

Trinity Rep presents The Henriad, Shakespeare’s Kings: Richard II, Henry IV and Henry V. The three-play cycle, performed in rep, runs in rotation in the intimate seven-row Dowling Theater.

With a captivating story and themes which resonate as strongly today as ever before, The Henriad paints vivid portraits of fathers and sons, succession and rebellion, and the responsibilities of patriotism and power.
