Royce Pierreson stars in Richard II at the Bridge Theatre.
Richard II is charismatic, eloquent, and flamboyantly witty. And a
disastrous King– dishonest, dangerous, and politically incompetent. Echoing down the centuries is the perennial problem: how to deal with a ruler who has a rock-solid right to rule but is set on wrecking the country he leads.
Shakespeare’s subtle, caustic, and powerful play revolves round two startlingly modern figures: Richard, an autocrat who believes he is divinely sanctioned, and Henry Bullingbrook, a hard-headed pragmatist who has genuine authority.
Richard II opens on February 10th and runs until May 10th. Tickets can be purchased here.
