WAR OF THE ROSES
CALIFORNIA SHAKESPEARE THEATRE, 2018
By Eric Ting and Philippa Kelly
An adaptation of Henry VI, Part I; Henry VI, Part II; and Richard III, by William Shakespeare
Directed by Eric Ting
“Nina Ball’s towering, modernist two level set frames the natural hillside behind. Ball’s striking steel frame portal, with its glassed-in bridge above echoes Shakespeare’s stage—with the surgical Tower bridge for murders. In that glass cage, horror prevails, while white-leaved trees inside frame brutal Ambition.”
