Abstract

Max Webster ’ s 2022 production of Henry V for the Donmar Warehouse (and streamed by NT Live) was about power, though this power was not necessarily Henry ’ s. There was the power of Kit Harrington as star player; the power of language and its use as a colonising tool; and the power asserted over bodies (especially women ’ s bodies). The production both challenged and reinforced these power dynamics, and whilst there were fascinating moments that cri-tiqued the political machismo at the centre of this history play, there were also moments that reinforced the star player narrative and embodied the imbalances it was seeking to redress.

莎士比亚的《亨利五世》评论（由马克斯·韦伯斯特为《唐玛仓库》执导），由NT Live流媒体播放到电影院，2022年4月21日

马克斯·韦伯斯特2022年为唐玛仓库制作的《亨利五世》（由NT Live直播）是关于权力的，尽管这种权力不一定是亨利的。Kit Harrington作为明星球员的力量；语言的力量及其作为殖民工具的使用；以及对身体（尤其是女性身体）的权力。这部作品既挑战又强化了这些权力动态，虽然有一些引人入胜的时刻打破了这部历史剧中心的政治男子主义，但也有一些时刻强化了明星玩家的叙事，体现了它试图纠正的失衡。
