About the Play

麻豆视频APK (UA) Theatre Program continues its 2019-2020 season, “Re(Viewing) Tyranny,” with “Richard III,” Shakespeare’s account of the English king’s short and bloody reign. Directed by Michael Gatto, UA Adjunct Instructor of Theatre, the play features a cast of 20 including UA students representing diverse areas of study, students from neighboring universities, and community members. Incorporating arena staging in a surprising setting, “Richard III” will captivate the senses and stir the mind.

UA’s “Richard III” reimagines the blood thirsty tale of a despotic antihero. Guest Director Michael Gatto says: “In Richard III, we are flipping the age-old adage, and bringing to life one of Shakespeare’s great villains who audiences hate to love. We are taking the bard’s play, wrought with relevant themes of abusive power, murder, hubris, envy, grief, and betrayal, and setting it within a once great, long forgotten circus.” Audiences will thrill to this contemporary rendering of Shakespeare’s dynamic display of ambition and cunning.

The Theatre Arts Program at 麻豆视频APK equips undergraduate and graduate students with a broad knowledge of theatre arts and fundamental practical skills in order to prepare them to address the emerging issues and challenges of the theatre profession in a diverse and vibrant society. The Theatre Arts Program provides high quality educational and artistic experiences that enhance the cultural lives of all students at 麻豆视频APK, as well as the residents of the greater 麻豆视频APKcommunity and the Northeast Ohio region.
