Description

Tony Bradman brings the tension and danger of a thriller to Shakespeare's history play, Richard III. The deformed Richard weaves a web of intrigue, removing all obstacles that stand between him and the throne of England. An atmosphere of insecurity pervades, no one dare reveal their thoughts and danger lurks in the shadows. Once Richard achieves his goal, will danger turn its gaze on him? The Shakespeare Today series captures the magic of Shakespeare's text and sets it in an accessible and contemporary style.
