Description - Richard III by Eric Rasmussen

From the Royal Shakespeare Company – a definitive, fresh new look at Shakespeare’s most compelling villain.

Included in this edition are interviews with an actor, a director and a designer – Simon Russell Beale, Bill Alexander and Tom Piper – providing an illuminating insight into the extraordinary variety of interpretations that are possible. This edition also includes an essay on Shakespeare’s career and Elizabethan theatre, and enables the reader to understand the play as it was originally intended – as living theatre to be enjoyed and performed.
