About the Play:
Christmas 1183. England's King Henry II has released his imprisoned wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, from captivity for the holidays. But this is no ordinary family reunion.
​
With three ambitious sons vying for the throne, a young French king demanding his promised bride, and a kingdom hanging in the balance, the royal couple engages in a spectacular battle of wits, barbs, and betrayals. Over one legendary holiday, they'll scheme, manipulate, and spar with razor-sharp dialogue—all while grappling with the love and resentment that still binds them together.
​
James Goldman's masterpiece is a wickedly funny, deeply moving portrait of power, family, and the games we play with those we love most. Witty, intelligent, and surprisingly modern, The Lion in Winter proves that the greatest conflicts aren't fought with swords—they're fought across the dinner table.

"[A] work of staggering power and beauty." – Variety
 
Don't miss this electrifying drama that won the Tony Award and inspired the Oscar-winning film. Crowns will be contested. Alliances will shift. And you'll be riveted from the first royal barb to the final devastating blow.
