Richard III

Since my group has to make a stage for the play Richard III by Shakespeare, I thought I should read up on it a little so I know what kind of a background it has. It's about a jealous brother who is greedy of the throne to become king. His brother is currently king but he manages to kill him and at the end marry his daughter to become King for sure. He wants to take no chance to let the throne go so anyone who comes in his way, he kills them. He uses people like Queen Anne in order to marry Elizabeth who is actually his niece so the relationship is kind of weird but the throne power is everything for him so he is willing to do anything for it. The ghosts of his dreams finally foreshadow his death the next day. I didn't think it would be interesting but at the end I actually found to like it a lot. I'll be working on the sketchup project with my group members and now i have a better understanding of how to set up the stage.
