The Masque of Kings is a two-act play written by Maxwell Anderson. The play is set in the 16th century and centers around the character of King Henry VIII of England.

The play explores themes of power, politics, and religion, as well as the personal struggles and motivations of the characters. The title refers to the masquerade ball that takes place in the second act, where the characters wear masks and costumes to hide their true identities and intentions. Overall, The Masque of Kings is a historical drama that offers a unique perspective on one of the most fascinating and controversial figures in English history.
