A radical and electrifying new adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Richard II is being performed in Gillingham next week.
A nation is in turmoil. Three first cousins – Richard, Aumerle and Henry – battle for the supreme position of authority. Who will succeed in saving their country from a trail of ultimate destruction? And who will survive the challenge for the throne?
African-Caribbean theatre company Tangle’s unique interpretation of one of the most compelling of Shakespeare’s history plays explores the politics of power and family alliances, and an original score of Zimbabwean music and song.
The play is being performed at Gillingham School Theatre (phone 01747 213023) on Wednesday 2 November at 7pm.
