Richard III
of William Shakespeare, John Jowett (Editor)
Series: Wars of the Roses #8
Description
This edition of Richard III features seven scenes, opening with the Duke of Gloucesterâs villainous âWinter of our discontentâ speech and followed by his audacious wooing of Lady Anne. Queen Margaretâs chilling curses, Richardâs string of murders, and the haunting chants of his victimsâ ghosts are stage drama at its best. The climax is a gripping battle in which the Earl of Richmond slays Richard and becomes King of England. There is also an essay by editor Nick Newlin on how to produce a Shakespeare play with novice actors, and notes about the original production of this abridgement at the Folger Shakespeare Libraryâs annual Student Shakespeare Festival.The edition includes a preface by Nick Newlin, containing helpful advice on presenting Shakespeare in a high school setting with novice actors, as well as an appendix with play-specific suggestions and recommendations for further resources.
