Description
"Henry IV, Part One" has always been a popular play, perhaps because it combines historic feats with high burlesque. It is performed on this recording by a brilliant cast which includes Richard Johnson, the wild and bold Prince Hal who slays in single combat the rebel Hotspur, played by Sir Michael Redgrave. Sir Anthony Quayle is an inimitable Falstaff, Harry Andrews is King Henry and Dame Edith Evans is Mistress Quickly, hostess of the tavern where Falstaff and his boon companions meet.
