Best deal 🛒 Shakespeare: Richard II Blu Ray – Jane Lapotaire , David Tennant ⌛

Live performance of the historical play by William Shakespeare with David Tennant playing the title role. Richard II, King of England, is a self-centred individual and a poor leader. His inadequacy eventually leads to his downfall, but the disgraced monarch undergoes immense psychological trauma before he can accept his fate.

Richard is King. A monarch ordained by God to lead his people. But he is also a man of very human weakness. A man whose vanity threatens to divide the great houses of England and drag his people into a dynastic civil war that will last 100 years. RSC Artistic Director Gregory Doran directs David Tennant in the title role of ‘a definitive production of great play’ ( Daily Mail ).
