Richard III

The performance in brief

In Richard III, Richard seizes power with lies, intrigue and murder. A man who spares nothing and no one.

The way up

Feeling humiliated and excluded, Richard decides to bend the game to his will. With charm and fine words, he wins trust, while meanwhile eliminating everyone who stands in his way. From the people to his own family, no one is safe. What begins as revenge grows into a ruthless pursuit of power.

All for power

Richard is willing to pay any price to come out on top. He goes further and further, losing sight of everything in the process. Conscience, limits, compassion ... everything has to give way. But what remains when he finally has what he wants?

Sharp and topical

In this modern adaptation and direction by Noël Fischer, Shakespeare's story is given a sharp, topical charge. About drive for power, manipulation and the question of how far someone will go to come out on top.
