Its Christmas in 1183 at the English royal palace in Chinon, France, and King Henry has his guard up. For the holiday, he is temporarily releasing his wife, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, from the imprisonment he imposed on her 10 years ago. Although married and part of the same court, the two are political rivals.
Following the death of their oldest son over the summer, Henry has yet to declare an heir, though he favors their youngest son, John, a spoiled and childish teenager. However, Eleanor wishes to see Richard, a seasoned battlefield hero, inherit the throne. The two, along with their sons, which also includes the overlooked and resentful Geoffrey, plot, deceive and scheme against each other, form and change alliances, and berate and betray each other all in less than 24 hours.
Adding to the problems is King Philip II of France, who argues with King Henry over a treaty, involving the land of Vexin as well as Philips sister, Alais, who also happens to be Henrys mistress. Everyone knows holidays with family are stressful, but this royal familys trials and tribulations have the power to change the fate of nations.
The production will be presented in The Legacy's intimate "Stage Door Theatre" setting, with only 100 tickets available for each performance.
