A Table of Green Fields

September 12th and 13th at St Mary's Church, The Oxford Rep Company presents 'A Table of Green Fields', after Shakespeare's Henry IV Parts 1 and 2.

England stands on the brink of war. As friends and lovers are forced to part, so ordinary men are forced to lay down their lives. Whispers are heard across the country - over tables rustling with maps, echoing through throne rooms, over generously filled tankards in fire-lit corners of taverns. The old way is passing on, much hangs in the balance - a Prince is to become King.

‘We few, we happy few, we band of brothers'.

Set in a reimagined pre-First World War, this medieval story of war and revelry, friendship and love, loyalty and duty, childhood and adulthood, is to be seen in another age of great upheaval.

With some of Shakespeare's funniest moments, beautiful design and costumes, talented actors and an incredible historic setting, this production has something for everyone.
