Kit Harrington stars in this new production of Shakespeare's classic tale

Kit Harington plays the title role in Shakespeare’s thrilling study of nationalism, war and the psychology of power.

Fresh to the throne, King Henry V launches England into a bloody war with France. When his campaign encounters resistance, this inexperienced new ruler must prove he is fit to guide a country into war.

Captured live from the Donmar Warehouse in London, this exciting modern production directed by Max Webster, Director of Life of Pi, explores what it means to be English and our relationship to Europe, asking: do we ever get the leaders we deserve?

Please Note This is a cinema event, recorded live at The Donmar Warehouse. This performance was initially advertised as a 12A certificate, but after guidance from the National Theatre was raised to 15 for scenes of strong violence.
