Prince

All the world’s a stage.

Have you ever been trapped in a bad relationship, playing a role that doesn’t suit you? Jen and Sam are also trapped … in a multiverse of Shakepeare’s complete works.

On their quest to discover the doorway back to reality they notice something unusual about Henry ‘Hotspur’ Percy. Now Jen and Sam must decide; do they risk losing their way home to help someone who might be like them – someone who does not yet know who she truly is?

The Prince is a sharp new play that weaves through Henry IV Part One and other of the Bard’s works, providing fun for the audience whether they be Shakespeare scholars or verse virgins. With sword fighting, lesbianism, and disappointed parents, this thrilling new work was written by Abigail Thorn, celebrated creator of Philosophy Tube.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London’s Southwark Playhouse, in September 2022.
