Families fracture, moral codes collapse, and revenge fuels brutality. King Henry VI struggles to maintain control while his nobles wage war, shifting allegiances and committing horrific acts. Featuring one
of Shakespeare's longest soliloquies and most battle scenes, this play explores the devastating human cost of civil war and political ambition. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
