Synopsis:
Henry II attempts to control his unruly sons and his strong-willed wife.

This ragbag of bravura theatrical writing, ranging from Racine to Albee, at times anachronistic for effect while scrupulously realistic in its external trappings, never quite reaches a climax but provides an abundance of pleasures along the way.
