“Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this son of York…” - Richard III Act 1, scene 1
Shakespeare’s enduring portrayal of England’s most famous villain, a twisted and ruthless monarch. The recent discovery of King Richard’s remains by archeologists means there is no better time to see why the “winter of our discontent” turns into a “glorious summer” at the Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival.
