The cast and crew of Phyllida Lloyd's production of Henry IV at the Donmar Warehouse celebrated their opening night last night.

The all-female cast includes Harriet Walter in the title role, Jade Anouka as Hotspur, Clare Dunne as Hal and Ashley Mcguire as Falstaff. The cast also includes Cynthia Erivo and a stage debut for E4's My Mad Fat Diary star Sharon Rooney.

Phyllida Lloyd's modern take on the production is set in a women's prison and incorporates both parts of Shakespeare's Henry IV plays.
