Henry IV, Part One July 4, 2010

Prince Hal will be king some day, but right now he's hanging with a crowd of lowlifes, led by the round-bellied and irresistibly magnetic John Falstaff. Hal's having the time of his life, but King Henry wishes his son were more like the valiant Hotspur, head of the rebellious Percy family gunning for the throne. For Henry and his line, it's a life-or-death military struggle for England's political future. Will Hal rally to the cause and marshal leadership qualities worthy of a crown?
