COMING SOON

HENRY 6

Show image cropped_edited.png

The Sydney Shakespeare Company’s next production will be the Australian premiere of

The Henry 6 Trilogy

July 10 to August 2, 2025 @ Flow Studios, Camperdown

The greatest trilogy ever written, these are the plays that launched Shakespeare’s career,

and went on to inspire Game of Thrones: including incredible characters like Joan of Arc,

Talbot the Terror of the French, Warwick the Kingmaker, Margaret the Warrior Queen,

and a clash of kings from pious Henry 6, to impetuous Edward 4, to infamous Richard 3,

this is a bloody slice of history you will never forget.

 

Selections have been previously performed under different titles, but this will be the first

time in Australia these three plays will be performed the way Shakespeare intended.

 

See them individually, or all in one day on August 2.

PART 1

Henry ascends the throne at only 9 months of age. The power vacuum causes rifts in England, and rebellion overseas. Can the Lord Talbot hold onto their French territories against the forces of Joan of Arc?

PART 2

Henry comes of age and must learn to reign for himself – but amongst a court filled with ambitious and scheming lords fighting for power and influence, who can he trust?

PART 3

The Duke of York and his sons want the crown. Battle lines are drawn, and England descends into chaos and bloody civil war – who will come out on top?
