There will also be performances on Oct. 11, 13, 17 and 18 at 7:30 p.m.

鈥淭his is one of Shakespeare鈥檚 greatest plays,鈥� said director Norman Schroder, a theatre professor at ISU. 鈥淵ou come to this play for the way Shakespeare uses his language and characters.鈥�

Schroder also said that people who have no background in literature or theatre will enjoy 鈥淩ichard III.鈥�

鈥淲e tried to make the play as free standing as possible,鈥� said Schroder. 鈥淚t is easier to see Shakespeare than to read it.鈥�
鈥淩ichard III鈥� is set in 16th century Europe, and shows Richard III鈥檚 pursuit for power and the consequences to his nation because of it.

鈥淩ichard III is a powerful, intriguing, disturbing, yet ultimately redeeming play, gorgeous in its language and known for its great characters,鈥� said Schroder.

The production lasts roughly 2- 1/2 hours, but Schroder said audience members will find the time to go quickly because of the many scenes and characters.

The cast of 鈥淩ichard III鈥� features 21 cast members, some of who play three or four different characters.

Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for children ages 6-18, $19 for faculty/staff/seniors, and $12 for ISU students with valid student ID.
