The Public Reviews returns to Henry V at the Lowry and gives the production four stars, hailing Propeller "the ultimate ensemble company." Tony Bell's Fluellen is used to illustrate how the production looks at the individuals within the army while Dugald Bruce Lockhart's Henry V has "the muscular physicality of a warrior" and the wooing of Kate is highlighted.
Meanwhile, Jildy Sauce looks at both Henry V and The Winter's Tale, saying Propeller "seem to work on the principle that in order to get to the truth in Shakespeare you must find new ways to connect with the audience to tell the story," connecting themes of madness and destruction across the two productions.
