SUMMARY:THE LION IN WINTER
DESCRIPTION:THE LION IN WINTER\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater\nMay 16 – June 13\, 2026\nBy James Goldman\nDirected by James Rice\nThis medieval drama is a modern day classic that tells the story of the Plantagenet royal family\, locked in a free-for-all of competing ambitions to inherit a kingdom.

Let out for the holidays\, the family descends into sibling rivalry\, adultery\, and desperate maneuvering for the throne.
