About

Dominic Dromgoole’s acclaimed Olivier award-winning production is brought to its conclusion in Part 2 of Shakespeare’s historical masterpiece, Henry IV – a thrilling tale of family, treachery and war that surveys the entire panorama of English life.

Staged with ‘terrific aplomb’ (Daily Telegraph) and featuring a stellar line-up, this magnificent Globe Theatre performance showcases some of the Bard’s deftest dramatic skill, and confirms why Henry IV is regarded as one of Shakespeare’s finest works.

Cast:
- Sir John Falstaff: Roger Allam
- Prince Hal: Jamie Parker
- King Henry IV: Oliver Cotton
- Lady Northumberland: Barbara Marten
- Shallow: William Gaunt
- Bardolph: Paul Rider
- Westmoreland: Jason Baughan

Director: Adrian Woodward
Music: Claire Van Kampen

Recorded live at Shakespeare’s Globe, August 2010.

"Henry IV is the Shakespeare play that's perfectly suited to the Globe. In Dominic Dromgoole's intelligent, faithful and entertaining new production, Sir John Falstaff, that "sweet creature of bombast", might have stopped for a pint of sack in Southwark en route for a rendezvous with Doll Tearsheet at the Boar's Head." - Guardian

"It is the first time these wonderful plays have been staged at the reconstructed globe and it may be one of this theatre’s finest achievements." - The Telegraph
