RSC LIVE: RICHARD II
"I wasted time, and now doth time waste me."
Directed by Gregory Doran
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.
