Richard III
June 11 @ 8:30 pm – 11:30 pm
After much battle and bloodshed, the York family has finally secured the crown from their rivals, the Lancasters. Edward IV is King and there are seemingly no Lancasters left that would try to take that title away from him. Instead, the threat comes from inside his family. Richard, Duke of Gloucester and youngest of the three York brothers, feels like an outcast in his family. Thus, he plans to “prove a villain” and set his brothers, King Edward and the Duke of Clarence, against one another. Through manipulation and murder he eventually secures himself the crown. But as his power increases, his friends and supporters decrease. And so does his sanity…
