Henry IV (Stoppard, trans.)
Luigi Pirandello
Henry
by Thomas Kilroy
Synopsis
Actor Richard McMillan is Henry, a man of enormous wealth and privilege, who believes he is the eleventh-century Holy Roman Emperor and German King Henry IV.
A fortress is built and actors are hired to carry out his fantasy.
But is he mad or are we?
Adapted from Luigi Pirandello s , Kilroy s version transports Pirandello s main character into twenty-first-century Hollywood with sensationally dramatic results.
Press Reviews
"…a flashy theatrical tour-de-force, an artfully layered construct of illusion and memory, madness and insight…a richly melodramatic spectacle imbued with philosophic speculation."
