People Without History

Work:: People Without History (S01065341896)

"The ground rolls by. There is nothing so, but the contour and foot adjusting and then, step again. It's work, and you get somewhere before you know it." So says Alice near the opening of Richard Maxwell's new play about war and loss and the dim time between the end of one and the reckoning with the other. This latest work by one of America's most celebrated and acclaimed theatre companies known for their droll and convention-defying stagings brings to the stage a world set between Shakespeare's Henry IV part 1 and Henry IV part 2. It is set on the borders of Wales and England in the aftermath of the Battle of Shrewsbury, in which the Lancastrian King, Henry, has defeated a rebel army.
