Richard III
“What do I fear? Myself?”
After decades of civil war, the nation hangs in the balance. Enter Richard, Duke of Gloucester, to change the course of history.
Richard was not born to be a king, but he’s set his sights on the crown. So begins his campaign of deceit, manipulation and violence – and he’s killing it. Yet behind his ambition lies a murderous desire to be loved.
Following Junkyard in 2017, Bristol Old Vic collaborate once again with Headlong, returning with Tom Mothersdale (The Glass Menagerie) to play Shakespeare’s iconic villain in a revelatory new production directed by Headlong Associate Artist, John Haidar.
Presented by Headlong, Bristol Old Vic and Alexandra Palace with Royal & Derngate, Northampton and Oxford Playhouse.
