Richard II London tickets
From Bridgerton to the Bridge Theatre, Jonathan Bailey stars as Richard II in Nicholas Hytner’s bold reimagining of the Shakespeare classic. Reigning at the theatre for a strictly limited run, book your official tickets today.
About Richard II
Richard II is charismatic, eloquent and loved by his friends. And a disastrous King – dishonest, capricious and politically incompetent.
Echoing down the centuries is the perennial problem: how to deal with a ruler who has a rock solid right to rule but is set on wrecking the country he leads.
Shakespeare’s subtle, ambiguous and beautiful play finds feudal England on the cusp of modernity, as a divinely sanctioned monarch is confronted, in the figure of Henry Bolingbroke, by the hard-headed pragmatism of real authority.
All Hail Richard II!
