With fighting and division in the corridors of power at an all-time high, ordinary men and women start to speak out. But as the people rise in protest, who is behind their rebellion? This filmed version of a Royal Shakespeare Theatre 2022 production, directed by Owen Horsley, includes performers from the young company and community participants alongside a professional cast. Henry VI: Rebellion hurtles through one of the most turbulent periods in English history.

A monarch ordained by God to lead his people. But he is also a man of very human weakness. A man whose vanity threatens to divide the great houses of England and drag his people into a dynastic civil war that will last 100 years.
