Richard III – The Globe Theatre

The Globe Theatre , United Kingdom

Meet Richard: the man, the myth, the monster. A new production of Shakespeare’s Richard III unfolds in the Globe Theatre this summer, with Artistic Director Michelle Terry in the title role. Richard can taste the throne, but before he can place the English crown on his own head, he must first set in motion a series of villainous events that threaten the lives of everyone around him. Imagine a world in which self-serving ambition is audaciously paraded and pursued, and murderous crimes are committed and confessed with irresistible charm and impunity. Who will stop this pathological narcissist before the whole country is deceived and destroyed? Following 2023’s ★★★★ ‘riveting’ (The Telegraph) A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Director Elle While returns to explore the enduring allure and charisma of evil. ‘Alack, I love myself.’ – Act V, scene 3 Date: Saturday 8th June 2024 Time: 2pm, followed by an optional dinner at the Real Greek Restaurant, Bankside Tickets: £62    (plus restaurant for those eating) Tickets will show as £0 below. Please book to reserve your place, then you will be contacted with payment details.
