Richard III

Produced, Adapted, and Performed by Charles Lear

This production of Richard III as a one-man show was born out of a desire to present the show in a way that was Covid safe. It was performed last October at the rodeo grounds in Magdalena and was well received. It is an abbreviated version of the play as all scenes where Richard does not appear have been cut. It uses no props or scenery and relies on Shakespeare’s words to tell the story. In Shakespeare’s day, Elizabethans went to “hear a play” and this production has been developed with that in mind.
