Ricardo III, INBA, Mexico

Ricardo III, INBA, Mexico

Richard III is the story of a nobleman who is determined to seize the crown of England. A man without scruples, a prodigious monster, an extraordinary villain and eternal warrior. Richard is the incarnation of selfishness, ambition, despotism and betrayal, a man who seduces everyone in his path and makes them fall under the spell of his insatiable desire for power. Richard's battle is with himself, but the victims are the public. This adaptation seeks to link Shakespeare's story and the history of Mexico at a very visceral level.
