The Lion In Winter at freeFall Theatre Company

Henry II has let his wife Eleanor of Aquitaine out of prison to spend Christmas with the family. But more is afoot than decking the halls with boughs of holly. Each has their eyes set on the crown for a different son. Parents, siblings, and the King of France become embroiled in a game of thrones that threatens to destroy them all.With a wildly comic tone, despite its dramatic action, James Goldmans modern classic is the family drama that lurks beneath the upheaval of history. And you thought your family bickered at the holidays.This show contains adult themes. Discretion advised.
