Book Synopsis

So we've been cast in a post-war English Nationalist Anti-Fascist Kebab Shop reimagining of Henry V set in the future?

The death of a national sweetheart.
A friendship tested by a bloody act.
An infamous production of Shakespeare''s Henry V.

A tell-all dark comedy that peels back the skin of English cultural identity to reveal the steaming battlefields that lie beneath. Would you die for your country?

From rehearsal room microaggressions, to the battlefields of France, into the bureaucracy of applying for citizenship, join Shakespeare''s Globe Ensemble veterans Nina Bowers and Philip Arditti in English Kings Killing Foreigners as they explore their histories alongside England''s own as unwilling actors in a national story.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere of RealFake Theatre and Camden People's Theatre co-production at Camden People's Theatre in April 2024.
