Following the critically acclaimed production of Richard II at The Globe Theatre, Adjoa Andoh makes her theatrical comeback as the producer of Richard III, whilst also starring as Shakespeare’s infamous antihero.
A tale of ambition and manipulation, Richard III charts the rise of Richard, Duke of Gloucester, as he deceives and murders anyone who stands in his path to becoming King.
Reflecting on her own childhood in rural England in the 1960s, Adjoa Andoh sets out to explore how pathologising the body and ascribing evil intent due to a person's physical appearance can wear away at the soul.
She says, 'My Richard is set apart from his family and his peers and ascribed a hateful personality reflecting the prejudice of the society around him. This fresh staging asks the question: what happens when the person who is punched down upon, punches up?'
Richard III was written by William Shakespeare, with this modern adaptation directed by Adjoa Andoh.
