Tabling: Richard II Act IV


Listen Later

The deposition scene was published in 1608 for the first time in the 4th quarto. But Richard II premièred in 1595 and had its first publication in 1597 without the deposition scene…how dangerous is this scene!?!

Samantha Blinn, Jane May, Nicholas Koy Santillo, Sam Gilroy, Ellyn Heald, Sam Gibbs & Ariana Karp had a lot of fun this week discussing:

  • The drama and danger of changing political allegiances 
  • The theatricality of politics
  • Private moment of Richard II in the middle of the deposition/abdication

David Tennant in the RSC production of RIchard II directed by Gregory Doran. Footage here.
