"Tell me, please - is this a dream?' The night before he leads his
troops into battle, the prince of Homburg strips off his uniform
and goes sleepwalking. Moonstruck, his mind races with a young
man's fantasies - love, ambition and victory. But when the morning
comes, a single reckless act of disobediance sets in motion a chain
of events that leads inexorable to the one thing he never dreamt
would happen; his own death. Heinrich von Kleist is one of the most
enigmatic figures in theatre history. Driven to suicide at the age
of 34, he left behind him seven extraordinary plays. Unperformed
during his own lifetime, The Prince of Homburg is now regarded as
von Kleist's masterpiece and is one of the most mysterious and
beautiful plays of the nineteenth century. Neil Bartlett's
production opened at the RSC Stratford in January 2002, and
transferred to the Lyric Theatre."
