3/15, Wednesday, 7:30pm. The first preview of Henry IV at Center House Theatre, by with an all-BIPOC cast.
I had to Google BIPOC.
I wish they wore more disguise, so I can tell who's who more easily, as each actor/actress is playing multiple roles and cross gender.
King Henry IV all the lords are played by women, and they still look very much like women despite of the change of clothing.
The acting is quite good, and words are announciated very clearly.
No real stage set (a table, some chairs, and a bed).
Lighting is used in great extent, and reasonably effectively.
I did enjoy the play.
