The Tennessee Stage Company and their Shakespeare program, Knoxville Shakespeare, are excited to announce a continued partnership and program with Mabry-Hazen House to perform Henry IV Part One on the historic grounds of Mabry’s Hill. The play will have 7 evening performances and 2 matinee performances.Attendees are urged to bring lawn chairs, picnic blankets, and other ways to enjoy this open-air show. Refreshments and light concessions will be available for purchase. Doors open thirty minutes before curtain.
Join us and our all-female cast for this funny, touching, and exciting tale of war and its ravages. Following the death of Richard II, King Henry IV (formerly Henry Bolingbroke) declares he will make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem to absolve himself for the overthrow (and murder) of his cousin Richard II — the final King of Divine appointment.
Before he and his retinue can leave England, King Henry must content with the capture of his cousin by Welsh rebels, the in-fighting of two former allies in the North, threats from war, and his no-good, wayward son, Prince Hal, who is too busy chasing drink and tomfoolery with his friend, Sir John Falstaff.
This Knoxville Shakespeare on the Hill is not one to miss!
“There lives not three good men unhanged in England, and one of them is fat and grows old.” - Falstaff, Act II, Scene iii
