THE LION IN WINTER by James Goldman

Featuring BILL JACKSON as Henry II, LIZ NORTON as Eleanor of Aquitaine, SHAYNE STELIGA as Prince Geoffrey, and CORY JEFFERSON HAGEN as Prince John, THE LION IN WINTER was originally produced on Broadway in 1966 and became an Academy Award-winning film in 1968 with Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn, Anthony Hopkins, and Timothy Dalton.
Set in 1183, Henry II, legendary King of England and a growing British empire, gathers the young Plantagenet princes, Richard, Geoffrey, and John, his dungeoned wife, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, his mistress Princess Alais, and King Philip of France to a Christmas court at Chinon Palace in France. In this fictionalized historical comedy, a tangled intrigue is woven around the family as Henry decides which of the princes is to succeed him to the Throne of England. The Reign over Europe is the prize as this family battles among themselves where love abides as devoted romance and lethal weapon.
