Richard the Second

Work:: Richard the Second (S1545164054)

A radical and electrifying new adaptation of Shakespeare's Richard II. Performed in a distinctive Southern African Township theatre style, Richard II continues the company's long-term commitment to championing African Caribbean artistic excellence, presenting classic plays in new and surprising ways to audiences of all kinds. A nation is in turmoil. Three first cousins - Richard, Aumerle and Henry - battle for the supreme position of authority. Who will succeed in saving their country from a trail of ultimate destruction? And who will survive the challenge for the throne? Tangle's unique interpretation of one of the most compelling of Shakespeare's history plays, exploring the politics of power and family alliances, will be performed by a multi-skilled ensemble of five.
