The story that sets England's Wars of the Roses in motion, Jessica Kubzansky's adaptation of Shakespeare's Richard II tells the story of that king's ill-fated reign using just three actors. What is our responsibility when a bad leader rightfully occupies the throne? This exploration of divine right, capricious leadership and bloody insurrection is packed with contemporary political relevance. A critic's choice pick when it premiered at the Boston Court theatre in Los Angeles, Charles McNulty, critic for the LA Times, called the play a "feat of ingenious stagecraft."
