The Life of Henry V

The Life of King Henry V is a historical play which follows the story of the King of England, Henry V. It covers the events before and after the Battle of Agincourt during the Hundred Years’ War in 1415. Audiences who saw the plays based on the life of Henry IV knew Henry V as “Prince Harry” or “Hal.” Here, the untamed boy they knew became a man and the conqueror of France.
