Northern Broadsides
Edward IV
Thu 4 May - Sat 6 May
This event has passed.
In this monumental and thrilling staging, Northern Broadsides’ vigorous performance style is a perfect match for the momentum and energy of this outstanding trilogy of plays that tells the unforgettable story of Britain’s own civil war and eventual salvation.
Each play is a stand-alone production but you must see all three to fully experience Shakespeare’s epic dramatisation of the most turbulent period in England’s history.
“The best Shakespeare around” The Independent on Sunday
“Northern Broadsides bring Shakespeare to life as gripping, accessible theatre” The Guardian
“Riveting, powerful theatre” The Stage
