We’ve been in London for 4 years now, and we finally went to see a Shakespeare play! When we found out Jude Law was performing in Henry V ages ago, we made sure to get tickets! It wasn’t performed in the Globe Theatre but that is forgivable.
I don’t know that I had ever read the play before, but was quite surprised at the subject matter and how good of a play it was . . . not the typical Shakespeare tragedy!
It was a great night out . . . and worth the entire 2 1/2 hour performance time! Just the list of actors was amazing . . . award winners, have been in many well-known TV shows or movies, etc.
Actually be glad it wasn’t at the Globe! That is a sore-rear, back-breaking experience!
