Experience the gripping drama of power, betrayal, and downfall in Shakespeare's Richard II.

This masterful history play delves into the turbulent reign of a flawed king whose arrogance and misrule spark rebellion, leading to his shocking deposition. With soaring poetry, intense political intrigue, and profound questions about leadership and legitimacy, Richard II is a timeless exploration of ambition and consequence. Will divine right prevail, or will raw power seize the throne? Don’t miss this riveting tale of a kingdom in crisis — where every word is a weapon and every choice determines destiny. Richard Shavzin directs.
