Henry 4.1

Walking Shadow Shakespeare Project and Austin Scottish Rite Theater invite you to join 30 Austin artists in an innovative choose-your-own-adventure version of Henry 4.1. Three branches of Austin’s exciting music scene have inspired this adaptation: Outlaw Country, Indie Dance, and Hardcore Punk. You decide the Henry you will follow for the first 20 minutes: Will it be the powerful but exhausted King Henry 4 (outlaw country)? The rowdy and avoidant Prince Hal (indie dance)? Or perhaps the fiery, impassioned Hotspur (hardcore punk)? All groups will then come together to experience the rest of the show. 

The show’s run will be split across two locations, the Austin Scottish Rite Theater and How Much?! Studios. See Performance Details below for more information.
