The play explores the life and reign of Henry VIII, showcasing a collaborative effort between William Shakespeare and John Fletcher. Known for its rich stage directions, it reflects both writers' contributions, particularly in its later scenes. The production history is notable, with a dramatic incident in 1613 when a cannon shot during a performance ignited the Globe Theater's roof. The play, initially titled All Is True, offers a unique insight into the historical figure's complex life and the theatrical practices of the time.
