Acting

RWCMD acting graduate Clare Dunne is playing Prince Hal in the Donmar Warehouse’s all-female production of Henry IV. Set in a prison, the production sees Clare as a streetwise Hal, alongside Dame Harriet Walter’s King Henry.

Clare Dunne, using a broad Dublin accent, is convincing as she goes from teen troublemaker to monarch-in-waiting over the condensed two-hour production” BBC online

This is the second all-female production that Clare has worked on with director Phyllida Lloyd – she also appeared in the Donmar’s all-female production of Julius Caesar in 2012.
