Photo Flash: First Look at RICHARD III At The American Shakespeare Center's Blackfriars Playhouse
By: Stephi Wild Aug. 06, 2018
Richard III chronicles the cataclysmic end of England's greatest power struggle, the Wars of the Roses. Richard is the play's remarkable, charismatic, and repulsive ringmaster - he takes the audience into his confidence as he plots to kill everyone before him in line for the throne. Being seduced by Richard's shameless treachery is one of theatre-going's most delicious guilty pleasures.
Richard III is directed by Jenny Bennett. Costumes are designed by Victoria Depew.
Playing now through December 1.
