S50 Ep19
Richard III
Premiere: 5/19/2023 | 02:19:49 | TV-14 |

Experience The Public Theater's Free Shakespeare in the Park production of
Shakespeare's tragedy with one of his most indelible villains starring
Danai Gurira in the title role. Recorded live in July 2022 from Central Park.
As part of its annual "Broadway's Best" lineup, Great Performances raises the
curtain this spring on The Public Theater's Free Shakespeare in the Park
production of Richard III premiering Friday, May 19 at 9 p.m. ET on PBS
(check local listings), pbs.org/broadwayonpbs and the PBS App.
Starring Danai Gurira ("Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," "The Walking Dead")
in the title role with Tony Award winner Ali Stroker ("Oklahoma!") as Anne,
Tony Award nominee Robert O Hara (Broadway's "Slave Play") directs this
Shakespearean tragedy spotlighting one of The Bard's most indelible villains
as part of Great Performances  50th anniversary season.
Guided by his lust for power and the throne, Danai Gurira gives a performance
that The New York Times called "unflaggingly energetic" and "vocally thrilling."
Richard III uses his words and dark charm to conceal his dismantling of
government and justice by manipulating, kidnapping and killing all who stand
between him and the throne. The energetic production features the use of
American Sign Language, a revolving set and dance sequences.
