Photo Flash: First Look at Three Day Hangover's HANK V

Three Day Hangover presents Hank V, an epic, two-person retelling of Shakespeare's Henry V...in a BAR! The final production of their sold out 2014 season, seven performances of Hank V will be staged at The East Wing at The Stumble Inn, 306 East 76th Street (at 2nd Ave) in NYC from February 18-March 1, 2015.

Once more unto the BAR, dear friends, once more. Sir John Falstaff: gentleman, scoundrel, lover, liar and everyone's favorite booze hound...is dead. His pal, Hank, has just been crowned King Henry the Fifth and needs his wing man (whether he knows it or not). So Three Day Hangover is reaching beyond the grave to reunite the two greatest drinking buddies in the Shakespearean canon for one final adventure. They'll tackle kingship, friendship and the conquering of France one shot of beer pong at a time. According to co-director Beth Gardiner, "We're shaking up Henry V, bringing a new perspective to an old play by bringing one of our all-time favorite characters back from the dead to take part in the action. The result is two-hander tour de force that gives the audience an inventive, interactive look at Hank and Falstaff's epic stories of battles, beer pong, honor and friendship."

Beth Gardiner & Lori Wolter Hudson co-direct a cast of two, starring Christopher Ryan Grant* (Million Dollar Quartet) & David Hudson* (Drunk Shakespeare). *Appearing courtesy of Actors' Equity Association in an Equity approved showcase.

Seven performances will be held on February 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28 and March 1 at 7:30pm. A full, cash bar, with food will be available throughout the evening.

Tickets are $15. Visit hankv.brownpapertickets.com.
