Clarke is magnificent as the third Richard, slowly loosing grip on the kingdom and his sanity. He bounces around the stage in a fury of guilt and reproach as the valiant Richmond moves to retake the throne. Parris perfectly complements Clarke as the righteous force of good that inevitably defeats the evil Richard. The play ends with a gloriously choreographed battle between the forces of Richard and Richmond.

...rhetorical duet-like structure of the piece--a secretary's vision of what Schuman really wrote. The audience wanted a second encore, but perhaps deserved to be punished for such a low turnout. Boston audiences should be flocking to hear every artist in the Celebrity Series Aaron and Ann Richmond piano recitals--do not miss next year's season, which will begin around October...
