Theatre company Antic Disposition have returned to Temple Church with a new — and rather beautiful — production of Shakespeare’s Henry V, fresh from their tour in France. Some of the production shots below.
The show runs in the legal cathedral to Saturday 5 September.
Incidentally, the photos may give the impression that the play has a Wagnerian running time. I can assure you that it doesn’t and zips along. Because of the venue we shoot the production shots slightly differently from the way they’d be done in a theatre, so I get the rare chance to photograph the show first in daylight and again after dark.
Production shots from the very beautiful retelling of Shakespeare’s Henry VI Parts 1, 2 and 3 for the Game of Thrones generation, HVI: Play of Thrones.
The show runs at the Union Theatre up to 24 January.
Never let it be said that Shakespeare was a twisted man. Shots from last year’s production of Measure for Measure at the Union Theatre, which saw the space transformed into, well, a walk-through brothel among other things…
