Studio Theatre Production Presents: The Lion In Winter Directed by Chrystine Williams

🎭 The Lion in Winter by James Goldman is coming to the Studio Theatre stage from November 27 – December 7 directed by Chrystine Williams.

Synopsis:
It’s Christmas, 1183 and the claws are out. Join us for a sharp-witted historical drama that blends biting humor with royal intrigue.

As the aging King Henry II gathers his estranged family for the holidays, he’s not expecting peace and goodwill. Queen Eleanor (recently released from prison for the occasion), their three scheming sons, and a young, meddling King of France all descend upon the castle—each with their own agenda.

The result? A royal battlefield of ambition, betrayal, and twisted affection. With alliances shifting faster than the snow can settle, this power struggle is equal parts family feud and political chess match.

What you can expect from this play, well...
• Fiery dialogue
• Ruthless ambition
• Christmas cheer with a side of dungeons

As Eleanor quips, “Every family has its ups and downs.” This one just happens to rule England.

Don’t miss this clever and captivating classic!
