Triple Olivier Award winner Roger Allam, one of the finest Shakespearean actors of his generation, and Olivier Award nominee Freddie Fox, one of Britain’s most exciting young actors, lead a repertory company in this double bill combining Shakespeare’s most powerful tragedy and his most beautiful and accessible history play. RICHARD II "This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England" A kingdom on a knife-edge. King Richard II (Freddie Fox) is a monarch of absolute power and divine right to rule. Easily swayed and badly advised, Richard plunges England into an ever-deepening crisis as his uncle, the Duke of York (Roger Allam) tries to rescue the country from disaster. But Richard's enemies are powerful, angry and out for revenge. Tom Littler directs for the Orange Tree Theatre following their recent Bath productions of The Rivals, Suite in Three Keys and The Circle.

Pierre Bensusan

“It’s like the guitar has been given free rein to play itself!” Pierre Bensusan is a French acoustic guitar virtuoso, vocalist, and composer whose distinctive voice has made him a defining figure in contemporary world music. Known internationally as “Mr DADGAD”, Bensusan has spent five decades bringing his singular sound to concert halls and festivals across the globe. Widely regarded as one of the great guitarists of the 21st century, his influence is such that fellow innovators have paid direct tribute - most notably when Michael Hedges titled a composition “Bensusan.” Awards include the Rose d’Or at the Montreux Festival, the Independent Music Award Grand Prix for his triple live album Encore, and repeated recognition as Best World Music Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine readers. Celebrated by artists across genres- from Leo Kottke and Tommy Emmanuel to Mark Knopfler and Pat Metheny - Bensusan’s work has also attracted champions beyond the guitar world. Steve Vai released three of his albums on the Favored Nations label, and recent collaborations include studio work on Donny Osmond’s Start Again. If world music is the artful fusion of tradition and innovation- blending folk roots with jazz, classical, and contemporary expression - Pierre Bensusan stands among its most eloquent voices.
