Richard III (by Orkater)
Shakespeare's great classic with music by Tom Waits
The music theatre company Orkater and Stadsschouwburg Amsterdam present a contemporary adaptation of Shakespeare's great classic Richard III with music by Tom Waits and Katleen Brennan. Richard III was completely sold out in the fall of 2010, but will rerun in august 2011, exclusively at the Stadsschouwburg. All performances will be surtiteled in English.
Richard III is Shakespeare's portrait of a ruthless career man, oozing charm, lusting for power.
The play describes his unlikely rise and his fall. Since he is the youngest brother of a king with healthy sons, it is unthinkable that Richard himself will ever ascend the throne. But for Richard, the impossible is a tempting challenge. Intriguing, flirting, threatening and on occasion killing, he makes his way to the seat of power.
The Dutch star actor Gijs Scholten van Aschat - who is also an excellent singer - plays Richard III. The harrowing music of Tom Waits and Katleen Brennan is performed live on the stage by Orkater's great musicians. "Waits's raw music fits Richard like a glove." (Trouw)
"A hallucinating performance." (NRC Handelsblad)
"This may well be the highlight of the season." (Het Parool)
