Shakespeare's Globe is bringing three incredible productions to Malmesbury Cinema. From June 2013 discover the drama, laughter and magic from the world's most famous stage on the big screen in glorious high definition.
In Henry Vth Shakespeare’s masterpiece of the turbulence of war and the arts of peace tells the romantic story of Henry’s campaign to recapture the English possessions in France. But the ambitions of this charismatic king are challenged by a host of vivid characters caught up in the real horrors of war.
Henry V, which opened the new Globe with the words ‘O for a muse of fire’, celebrates the power of language to summon into life courts, pubs, ships and battlefields within the ‘wooden O’ - and beyond.
