I’d been waiting for a long time to see this production by Tapestry. Nothing was going to mess that up. Well, with a lousy weather forecast threatening gusty winds, torrential rain, thunder and lightening, I decided I was going to just take my chances getting to the Lee Center, via DASH, and the six block walk. Well, thankfully, Mother Nature didn’t throw a tantrum. And I’m glad I went. For such a large cast everybody involved was great (convincing). Miss McKenna’s “Queen Margaret” was most regal, indeed, and Mr. Greenleaf a good murderous, wise cracking “Richard”. Miss Decker’s “Prince Edward” had a good, “Please don’t touch me, Richard” air with “Richard”, which he, of course, found irksome. Costumes were impressive. The set – it was bare but most effective. You don’t need a lot of “stuff” on stage to deliver a good show. The use of video – could be confusing, with the exception of its use for “Richard” haunted by dreams of those (or some of those – you lose track of the body count ) he’d murdered. But all in all if you get the chance this is worth seeing, and it won’t gouge your wallet.
