Get ready for an epic journey through history with Upon the King! Adapted from eight of Shakespeare's greatest history plays, this production weaves one continuous story of England’s crown as it passes from king to king—through acts both noble and treacherous. Spanning the Hundred Years’ War with France to the chaos of the War of the Roses, this play captures the triumphs, betrayals, and humanity behind the throne. Packed with the best action and thought-provoking moments, Andrew Philpot’s masterful adaptation crafts a deeply engaging experience. Making its Oregon debut, Upon the King explores the timeless and ever-relevant themes of leadership—the glory, the burden, and the sacrifices demanded of those who wear the crown.
Join Penguin under the stars for this epic we promise you have never seen the likes of before!
