The ten plays usually called history plays are King John, Richard II, Henry IV Part 1, Henry IV Part 2, Henry V, Henry VI Part 1, Henry VI Part 2, Henry VI Part 3, Richard III and Henry VIII.

Kings of England portrayed at one point or another in these plays are John, Henry III, Richard II, Henry IV, Henry V, Henry VI, Edward IV, Edward V, Henry VII and Henry VIII.

The following Kings and Queens of England appear in Shakespeare's history plays: John, Henry III, Richard II, Henry IV, Henry V, Henry VI, Edward IV, Edward V, Richard III, Henry VII, Henry VIII, and Elizabeth. Whether they were made immortal by these characterizations is another story. Henry III and Henry VII only appear at the end of plays to take over from the previous and recently deceased monarch. And Edward V is just a teenager and Elizabeth a baby when they appear.

Depends which Henry IV play you are talking about. Shakespeare wrote two plays called Henry IV Part 1 and Henry IV Part 2. They are generally classified with the Histories, although the part of them which is foremost is the adventures of Prince Hal and his fat friend Falstaff, which have no historical basis at all. On the other hand, the rebellion of Hotspur was a historical event in the reign of Henry IV of England, so the plays might be thought of as historical.

Luigi Pirandello's play Henry IV (Enrico IV), on the other hand, is not historical, but the story of a man who believes himself to be a historical person, in this case the Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV.

Since you asked about plays, I guess we cannot count the film Henri 4 which was about the French King Henry IV and was indisputably historical.
