概要

Dive into the captivating world of Shakespeares Richard II, often heralded by scholars as the first act in the sweeping saga of the Henriad. This play offers a profound exploration of the nature of monarchy, illustrating the transition from the divine right of kings to a more politically savvy approach. Shakespeare presents Richard as a tragic figure, whose failures as a ruler are starkly highlighted through his mishandling of a judicial duel and his unscrupulous seizing of funds for an Irish campaign. In stark contrast stands Henry Bolingbroke, the cunning opportunist who gathers enough support to unseat Richard and pave his way to becoming Henry IV—the central figure in the subsequent plays of this historical trilogy. Written entirely in verse and showcasing some of Shakespeares most exquisite language, Richard II immerses its audience in a time when the power struggles of kings were as thrilling as any battle. This unforgettable performance features the talents of three men (Craig Franklin, Tomas Peter, and Brad Hamlet Filippone) and one woman (Sonia), all dedicated to delivering a rendition of Shakespeare that will change the way you see his work. Prepare to rethink everything you thought you knew about the Bard! - Summary by Tomas Peter
