Henry V

TT’s 36th Annual “Shakespeare in the Park”

Henry, the young and newly crowned king, is impatient to assert control over the people of England. Having received a humiliating gift from overseas, his bruised ego leads him to double down on a military invasion abroad in a bid to expand his green and pleasant land. But at what devastating cost? Witness Henry’s bombastic pursuit of power... "The game's afoot!"

Join us ON the Town Park Stage for one of our town’s most beloved traditions.

Shakespeare in the park

Telluride has hosted Shakespearean productions since the 1800's in historic local venues, such as the Masonic Lodge and the Elks Lodge.

Towns and cities across the US have put on Shakespeare in the Park productions since 1954. Telluride Repertory Theatre launched its annual production in 1990, with A Midsummer Night’s Dream put on in Elks Park. Since then, hundreds of local artists and audiences have taken part in vibrant reimaginings of The Bard’s classic plays, with the goal of making these stories accessible and entertaining for everyone.

In 2026, we celebrated the 36th Anniversary of this beloved tradition with Henry V.
