Wayne Goldman’s brilliant historical crisis pits King Henry II of Britain against the strong-willed Eleanor of Aquitaine. Back again stabbing, spying, double crossing, and rampant infidelity – a typical family Christmas. Usual, that is, for the Plantagenets. Kathleen Chalfant and Alfred Molina provide alive the witty, eloquent battle from the sexes that was immortalized in the Academy Award-winning film of the same name starring Katherine Hepburn and Peter O’Toole.

An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast overall performance offering Lars Carlson, Kathleen Chalfant, Kevin Daniels, Spencer Garrett, Laurel Moglen, Alfred Molina and Steven Sutcliffe.
