RANGELEY — The Rangeley Friends of the Arts will sponsor two performances of William Shakespeare’s “Henry V” on Oct. 23.

The first is at 9:45 a.m. for Rangeley middle and high school students; the second at 7 p.m. for the community. Both performances will be staged at Lakeside Theater, 2493 Main St.

The production is by the Theater at Monmouth. Following the morning performance, students will meet with the actors. In the afternoon, the actors will hold a workshop with students.

Admission for the evening performance is $10.

“Henry V” is the story of a young king who makes a rash decision to go to war. Against overwhelming odds, he leads his country to victory, conquering France and winning its princess. But there’s a terrible cost in human life and ruthless acts of moral ambiguity.
