About

Often considered the Bard's most popular history, Henry V follows the brave young King through some of the most pivotal years of 1400s England. With assassination plots, disguises, drunken tavern brawls, love, loss, war, and a healthy dose of comedy, watch as King Henry leads the invasion of France and, against all-odds, wins The Battle of Agincourt.
