"Andoh brings a fierce, commanding energy to the stage. Your eyes can’t help but follow as her Richard prowls, capers and cowers. Gripping, imaginative and articulate"
"Harry Clarke as Catesby and Antonie Azor (Ratcliffe) are quietly effective as the sinister and morally malleable henchmen who carry out Richard's dirtiest deeds.”
Arts City Liverpool
★★★★
