See the Royal Shakespeare Company's residency at the Barbican

The Royal Shakespeare Company's residency at the Barbican culminates in January 2016 with a major theatrical event to mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death.

King and Country will see Richard II, Henry IV Parts I & II and Henry V performed in repertoire as a complete four-play season cycle. This is the only opportunity to enjoy the RSC's tetralogy of History plays as a cycle in the UK prior to its international tour.

Richard II sees David Tennant return the title role, which he played to acclaim in 2013, winning a WhatsOnStage Award for his performance. In Henry IV Parts I & II Jasper Britton, Alex Hassell and Antony Sher reprise their performances as Henry IV, Hal and the infamous Sir John Falstaff. And Henry V brings the cycle to a dramatic conclusion on the battlefield of Agincourt, with Hassell starring as the warrior king.

There are four complete cycles of performances of King and Country, bookable only as a four-play season package.
