The play explores the complex reign of Henry IV, who grapples with guilt over his past actions against Richard II while leading a crusade to the Holy Land. Central to the narrative is his son, Prince Hal, who rejects royal responsibilities in favor of a life of revelry with the comedic Sir John Falstaff.
