Rainbow Shakespeare: Richard III

Shakespeare’s take on the dastardly rise to power of the ambitious Richard, Duke of Gloucester. In the aftermath of the Wars of the Roses, bitter and cunning Richard plots against and subverts his brother, King Edward IV, from the throne; has the young princes murdered in the Tower of London and manipulates Lady Anne into marrying him. Haunted by the ghosts of those he has killed, Richard ultimately meets his demise at the Battle of Bosworth. Expect to be entertained with humour, intrigue, murder, ghosts and battles!
