2 Male 0 Female
The court of Henry VIII is the backdrop for a clash of wills between a
cutthroat attorney and a throat-cutting king
As the play opens, the arrogant monarch's supper is interrupted by the unexpected arrival of a visitor from the future-a fast-talking Jewish lawyer who will be representing Catherine of Aragon's interests in the impending divorce proceedings
Skeptical at first, then angered by this stranger's brash declarations, Henry is nonetheless intrigued by the newcomer's suggestion that five more women after Catherine will hold the title of Queen
Both men - egotistical and intent on winning at all costs - will have their mettle tested over the next 15 years
