Two Roses for Richard III

18 May 2012 - 23 May 2012 / Roundhouse Main Space

From Brazil, Companhia Bufomecânica brings a breathtaking production, combining Shakespeare's text with circus, multimedia, visual metaphor and aerial choreography. Inspired by Shakespeare's history plays, the bloody events of the War of the Roses are vividly re-imagined in a glorious black carnival of villainy, corruption and seduction. Two Roses for Richard III reunites two of Brazil's leading directors, Cláudio Baltar (circus companies: Intrepida, Archaos) and Fabio Ferreira, known for his text-based theatre and multimedia work. Commissioned for the World Shakespeare Festival.
