The Lion In Winter

BCA Plaza Theatre, 539 Tremont Street

WHAT SHALL WE HANG? THE HOLLY OR EACH OTHER?”

James Goldman’s The Lion in Winter is a Tony award-winner and a modern-day classic, packed with action and dripping with dark humor. Set during Christmas 1183, the play explores the power struggles and inner conflicts between King Henry II of England, his brilliant wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and their three wily and resentful sons. As the family comes together for the first time in years, the chess game of royal succession begins, with everyone vying for power, prestige, and the greatest prize of all – real love. As Eleanor says, “What family doesn’t have its ups and downs?”

Starring: Anthony Mullin as Henry and Sehnaz Dirik as Eleanor

Written by: James Goldman

Directed by: Allison Olivia Choat
