The Hollow Crown

A unique entertainment composed of music, poetry, speeches, letters and other writings from the chronicles by and about the Kings and Queens of England.  First presented by the Royal Shakespeare Company with Dorothy Tutin and Max Adrian, subsequently performed by casts including Peggy Ashcroft, Marius Goring, Geraldine McEwan and Vanessa Redgrave, this is a work sparkling with the wit of several centuries and which demonstrates the vulnerable humanity of those who have worn the crown.
