Henry IV, Part One presented by The Baltimore Shakespeare Factory

An all-female cast provides a unique perspective on a medieval tale of power, politics, honor, and war. Henry IV, Part One also features Shakespeare's most complete comic character--Sir John Falstaff--and explores the contentious relationship between King Henry IV and his son, Prince Hal, who would eventually become England's premiere warrior king, Henry V.
