Richard III

First Folio Productions and Catalyst Repertory bring you a local-star studded and visually stunning show that promise to leave you thinking about this classic story in new ways.

Richard – Also called the “Duke of Gloucester,” and eventually crowned King Richard III. Deformed in body and twisted in mind, Richard is both the central character and the villain of the play. He is evil, corrupt, sadistic, and manipulative, and he will stop at nothing to become king. His intelligence, political brilliance, and dazzling use of language keep the audience fascinated—and his subjects and rivals under his thumb.

Richard – Also called “King of the Carpark”, the remains of the medieval monarch were sensationally rediscovered beneath a blanket of tarmac in the center of Leicester in August 2012.
