“Goldman carves syllables as pleasantly as he does hides. Wear a windbreaker. There’s quite a gale.” The New York Herald Tribune “A work of intelligence, astringent wit, and much theatrical skill.” -New York Times | 
A drama by James Goldman. Directed by David Kelso Opens Friday, February 10 and runs thru Saturday, March 11, 2006 Step back in time to the 12th century. It’s Christmas time, and there’s a frost in the air. Let us visit King Henry II in his castle. Careful, don’t fall in the icy moat. See the tower up there? That’s where he keeps his wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, locked away. See the dungeon down there? That’s where he has imprisoned his three sons. Uneasy is the head upon which the crown lies. Here’s a robe of wool to wear – dark clouds are gathering and flashes light the sky. Now, sit back and watch the sparks fly, as a great king and an even greater queen, duel for the fate of nations. Henry and Eleanor? At it? Oh my, they ought to sell tickets to that! Rated PG |
