Sibling rivalry, adultery, and dungeons — set at the fictional Christmas court of Henry II at Chinon, France in 1183. Eleanor of Aquitaine, the queen and wealthiest woman in the world, has been imprisoned for raising an army against her husband. Let out only for holidays, the play centers on the royal family's inner conflicts as they fight over a kingdom and Henry's paramour. A "medieval murder mystery" without the murder, presented in CVLT's intimate 50-60 seat River Street Playhouse.
