THE LION IN WINTER to Play Lakewood Theatre Co. This December

THE LION IN WINTER by James Goldman will play Lakewood Theatre Co. this December. Directed Eric Link and produced by Buffi Holland, the show runs December 4 - 20, 2015.

Sibling rivalry, adultery and dungeons - THE LION IN WINTER, by James Goldman, is a modern day classic. Comedic in tone, dramatic in action - the play tells the story of the Plantagenet family who are locked in a free for all of competing ambitions to inherit a kingdom. The queen, and wealthiest woman in the world, Eleanor of Aquitaine, has been kept in prison since raising an army against her husband, King Henry II. Let out only for holidays, the play centers around the inner conflicts of the royal family as they fight over both a kingdom, as well as King Henry's paramour during the Christmas of 1183. As Eleanor says, "every family has its ups and downs," and this royal family is no exception.

The talented cast features:

David Winton .... King Henry II
Deanna Glasser.... Queen Eleanor
Jolinda Beck .... Alais
Micah Buckley.... Prince Richard
Logan Dowlen .... Prince Geoffrey
Evan Grabenstein .... Prince John
