📱 eBook en inglés YEAR OF THE KING

A classic of theatre writing, a unique insight into the creation of a landmark Shakespearian performance.

Antony Shers stunning performance for the Royal Shakespeare Company as Richard III on crutches – the so-called bottled spider – won him both the Laurence Olivier and Evening Standard Awards for Best Actor. This book records – in the actors own words and drawings – the making of this historic theatrical event.

This edition of Year of the King is published on the twentieth anniversary of the RSCs 1984 production. It includes a new introduction in which Sher looks back at what has happened to him and to the world in the intervening years.
