Richard III

written by William Shakespeare

 

Harlow Theatre Company is travelling back to the 1460's for it's next production, with Shakespeare's most famous anti-hero, Richard III. 
The play begins at the end of the bloodiest war in Britain's history, the English Civil War, where the houses of York and Lancaster have been fighting for the ultimate prize, the throne of England.  The house of Lancaster has been beaten, Edward the Fourth reigns and a moment of peace is enjoyed across the land until Edward falls ill.  Once more envious eyes are sighted upon the kingship, with loyalties split and intentions revealed, as Richard struggles to keep England safe from France, and more importantly a young Henry Tudor who is ready to reclaim the throne in the name of Lancaster.
 
Be prepared for a production lavish with costume and music of the period, as Harlow Theatre Company retell this classic tale of propaganda, power and war!
