King Henry II of England has three sons by Eleanor of Aquitaine :
Richard , Geoffrey and John . All three sons want to rule, but Henry
favors the youngest, Eleanor favors the eldest, and the middle son hopes to play both ends against each other and come out on top. Uneasy is the head on which the crown lies, and uneasy the truce between a matchless king and queen. Few since Shakespeare have had such a marvelous gift for truly comic repartee.
This show is directed by Julie Tattershall, the artistic director of both Heller and Clark Theatres, who was named Communicator of the Year, the top honor of the annual Bronze Quill Awards sponsored by the Tulsa chapter of the International Association of Business Communicators in October of 2006. Tattershall was honored for her quarter-century of dedication to creative communications and passing the gift of acting along to many. Julie began a ‘New Plays’ series in 1990, a tradition that currently continues in production. Julie also began Tulsa’s first regular performing improvisational troupe, "The Laughing Matter Improv", who, after twenty years, still performs regularly to packed crowds. Under her direction, Heller Theatre was honored by the Oklahoma Community Theatre Association as "Theatre of the Year" for 2005 and for the past two festivals they have been selected to represent Oklahoma at the American Association of Community Theatre’s Region VI Festival.
Theatre Tulsa is a proud member of the Tulsa Area Community Theatre Alliance, the Arts & Humanities Council of Tulsa, and the Oklahoma Community Theatre Association.
This production made possible by grants from the Oklahoma Arts Council , Arts & Humanities Council of Tulsa, and the all the proud sponsors of Theatre Tulsa. |
