Hudson Shakespeare Company: Richard III August 13, 2010

Meet the most charismatic villain ever to command a stage. He's Shakespeare's Richard III, the man audiences have loved to hate for 400 years. Deformed in body and spirit, this engaging monster is obsessed with power. Driven by bloody ambition, cursed by nightmares and a chorus of queens, Richard grinds his adversaries beneath his lurching feet until he bestrides beleaguered England like a malevolent colossus.
