Brownsea Open Air Theatre presents Richard lll

Richard lll

About

One of the biggest theatrical projects in the south, Brownsea open air theatre brings you Richard lll. These beautiful surroundings make for a wonderful show, and a fantastic evening of traditional Shakespeare. After a long civil war between the royal family of York and the royal family of Lancaster, England enjoys a period of peace under King Edward IV and the victorious Yorks. But Edward's younger brother, Richard, resents Edward's power and the happiness of those around him. Malicious, power-hungry, and bitter about his physical deformity, Richard begins to aspire secretly to the throne - and decides to kill anyone in his way, in order to become king.
