Product Description
'Now is the winter of our discontent. Made glorious summer by this sun of York'
As the dust settles on England after bloody civil war, the bitter hunchback Richard, brother of the king, is secretly plotting to seize the throne. Charming and duplicitous, powerfully eloquent and viciously cruel, he is prepared to go to any lengths to achieve his goal. Shakespeare's final drama of the Wars of the Roses cycle shows a man who, in his skilful manipulation of events and people, is a chilling incarnation of the temptations of power in a land shocked by war.
'Exciting, funny and violent.' Ian McKellen
