Henry IV: Part One

Shakespeare – if you’re a lover of drama and the theatre, he’s the best there ever was. If you’re currently in high school, he’s a fucking arsehole. If you’re in the former category, Henry IV, Part One is one of his most intriguing plays, and what better company to perform the play than The Australian Shakespeare Company. It’s on at the Athenaeum Theatre from Wednesday May 16 through Saturday May 26. It’s a cracker and if you are in Year 12, it’s on the damned reading list this year, so just cheat and see this. We have a few double passes to give away. So who's your favourite Shakespeare character?

I like Brutus from 'julius caesar', an honorable man led down the garden path by those around him.

Mercutio from "Romeo and Juliet", "A plague on both your houses" is a useful line to this day.
