Richard II Tickets and Dates

Bridge Theatre, London

More Information about Richard II

Richard II is charismatic, eloquent and flamboyantly witty. And a disastrous King


dishonest, dangerous and politically incompetent.

Echoing down the centuries is the perennial problem: how to deal with a ruler who has a rock solid right to rule but is set on wrecking the country he leads.

Shakespeare’s subtle, ambiguous and powerful play revolves round two startlingly modern figures: Richard, an autocrat who believes he is divinely sanctioned, and Henry Bolingbroke, a hard-headed pragmatist who has genuine authority.
