Wolf Hall
Following book of the same name, this play follows the growth of Cromwell as he becomes Henry the VIII's closest advisor.
England at the 1520s can be really actually just a pulse from disaster. The country could possibly be destroyed by warfare, if the King dies without a male heir. Marry Anne Boleyn and henry VIII would like to annul his marriage of twenty decades. Many of Europe and the Pope oppose him. Into the impasse steps Thomas Cromwell: a man that is wholly original, a bully, and a charmer, both idealist and opportunist, self indulgent in reading people, and implacable in his dream. But Henry is volatile: just one day tender, one day murderous. Cromwell helps him break the resistance, but just what will be the purchase price of his victory?
