Henri VI (1/3) by William Shakespeare

"Henri VI (1/3)" by William Shakespeare is a history play that dramatizes the loss of England's French territories and the political machinations leading to the Wars of the Roses. The play depicts how personal squabbles and petty jealousy tear apart the English political system during King Henry VI's reign. Shakespeare likely collaborated with other playwrights, possibly including Christopher Marlowe and Thomas Nashe, to create this first part of a trilogy exploring England's descent into civil war.
