Directed by Garry Hynes
When peace descends, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, is not a happy man. Crippled from birth and intensely ambitious, he sets about bending the world to his own desires. No bond is too sacred, no blood too thick – nothing will stand between Richard and the crown.
‘Brazenly Irish . . . A huge achievement’ – Irish Independent on DruidShakespeare
Shakespeare gives us one of the great villains with Richard III, in a chilling and darkly comic story of power and ambition. Druid’s production features the acclaimed creative team and Druid Ensemble behind DruidShakespeare, as the company continues its exploration of Shakespeare’s Kings.
