August 21 – September 5, 2026

Location: Greenbelt Arts Center

Christmas with the Plantagenets: the premier dysfunctional family of 12th century Europe. King Henry II of England lets his Queen wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, out of prison (she led one too many nearly successful revolts against him) for a two-day Christmas court of merriment, politics and infighting at Chinon, France in 1183. They are joined by their three sons (and aspiring heirs): Richard Lionheart, Geoffrey (Count of Brittany), and John the pimple. Also in attendance are Alais Capet (both the fiancée of the as-yet-to-be-determined heir, and Henry’s current mistress) and her younger brother Philip, the new King of France, who wants her wedding performed, or her dowry back.

Tickets: $24 General Admission, $22 Seniors/Military, $12 Student/Youth. Buy tickets here.
