Dear Bardies,

Now is the winter of our discontent,made glorious summer by this play announcement.

The Bell Shakespeare will be taking Richard 3 to the stage in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra in 2017. Directed by Peter Evans andstarring Australian award winning actor Kate Mulvany as the smiling villain, this is sure to be a killer show.

First performed around 1593, Richard 3,it is the story of a Machiavellian psychopath, a cold-blooded and dastardly manipulator who slaughters his family, marries his victim’s widow and eventually betrays his allies, all in his quest to become king. Sounds like a hoot, can’t wait!

““A horse, a horse! Mykingdom for a horse!””

Richard 3will be performed at theSydney Opera House from Saturday April 25 – Saturday April 1. For more info click here.
