A king. A traitor. A villain. Or was he? History tells us Richard III was a ruthless usurper, a murderer, a monster. But history is written by the victors – and truth is not always what it seems. In this electrifying one-man performance, Richard returns to confront the myths, the lies and the Shakespearean legend that made him infamous. Fact and fiction collide as he defends his name and forces you to question everything you thought you knew. The final verdict? That’s for you to decide.
