Richard III: Villain or Victim? Talk

Dr Georgiana Lorimer explores the contrast between Richard’s portrayal as a villain by Shakespeare and her recent study of the pivotal moments in his reign based on historical records. She brings to life the man and his times. These pivotal events: coronation, the death of his wife, and of his son, the Titulus regius which declared his nephews to be illegitimate, the betrayal by his friend Buckingham and the final battle at Bosworth, have been brought to life in poetry. £6 per person, Pre-booking Essential.
