Richard III      Act I, Scene i   
Gloucester
April 2, 2013



What is Shakespeare's idea of tragedy?  Is an audience seduced by Richard?  What happens to the soul of ambition after the final prize has been won?  Is there any sympathy left for this devil?  The answers and much more, including a fantastic reading of the opening speech, can be found in Part II of our interview about Richard III with Ron Russell and Jim Wallert of the Epic Theatre Ensemble.  Their production of Richard III: Born With Teeth runs through May 4th.  For details click here.
