Spring 2026 Mainstage


Henry V Banner Poster

Encouraged by his closest advisors, a leader elects to take his country to war with a foreign power in order to curb domestic troubles and rally the nation against a shared enemy. 

The year is 1415. 

This is the backdrop to William Shakespeare’s Henry V (1599). Sweeping in scope and clarifying in its specificity, Henry V is one of Shakespeare’s most enduring history plays. Based on the historical invasion of France by England’s great “Warrior King”, Shakespeare thrillingly spins history into a narrative which examines both leadership and those who must follow. What is the cost of responsibility? And what and who are you willing to sacrifice to achieve your ambitions? 

For the 1st time in its storied history the University of Dallas the Drama Department is presenting Shakespeare’s Henry V directed by Associate Professor and Chair of Drama, Kyle Lemieux.

Opening April 9th with 10 total performances continuing through April 18th.
