Shake on the Lake presents Richard III

Wednesday, August 1, 2018 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Shake on the Lake (SOTL) is a non-profit, professional theatre company that specializes in staging outdoor, summer, Shakespeare productions. This is SOTL’s third visit to SCA.

Richard III is about a person thought of as “a deformed, evil, toad” doing whatever he can to take power and prove to people he IS capable, then through his treacherous, violent, machinations betrays friends, loved ones, becomes King, only for it to all go horribly wrong in the end. Richard is a tragic Shakespearean clown, who uses humor, charm, and violence to achieve his goal of becoming the most powerful person in the world—the King of England. Shakespeare’s plays speak across time, with themes that relate to audiences in 1618, to now in 2018.
