Power, ambition, and propaganda collide in Shakespeare’s rarely staged history play. King John asks urgent questions about who gets to rule, how truth is shaped, and the human cost of political maneuvering. With disputed successions, leaders clinging to power, and voices from the margins fighting to be heard, the play speaks uncannily to our own era of fractured alliances and contested narratives. At once gripping and darkly comic, King John exposes the chaos behind the crown, and the timeless struggle between authority, legitimacy, and survival.
