Dumb question, maybe. Has there ever been a play that portays
Richard as he actually was?

The Brooklyn contingent timidly raises its hand to admit that she has a play about the historical Richard, _Loyalty Lies_, which was produced under the auspices of the Puerto Rican Traveling Theatre a few years ago. Members of the Society saw a version of this at the 2000 AGM, directed by Anne Smith, and featuring Kurt Elftman as Richard, who repeated his wonderful work for me at the PRTT production.

Josephine Tey wrote a play called "Dickon" under the name Gordon
Daviot, but I don't know if it ever got produced. I've read it, and
it's not very good!

There is a wonderful play by Maxwell Anderson entitled "Richard and Anne", in which the ghost of the historical Richard appears on stage during a performance of Shakespeare's RIII and begins to tell his own version of the story. "Richard and Anne" was staged a few times in the '50s, if I remember well, and it has been published with an introduction by Rosanne Murphy.
Dickon by Josephine Tey was staged - I remember reading comments from Olivier and Gielgud after the performance.

Hi Cecilia! Happy New Year!

The American Branch under the aegis of Roxane Murph was instrumental
in the publishing of "Richard and Anne" by McFarland

& Co. in 1995.

She worked closely with the Anderson family to do this.

It is a well -annotated volume and Roxane's introduction gives lots of
Ricardian background.

I don't think it's been produced on stage - maybe some local productions.
It was originally turned down for production by

The Playwright's Company, to which Anderson belonged. This lead to his
leaving the group..

I believe copies of the book are available from the American Branch
Sales Office. That is where I got my copy.



L.M.L.,

Janet

What would be the reasons for the pro-Richard plays
not being produced very often? The quality perhaps?
Scholarly Tudor indoctrination over the years? Or are
there other reasons? It surely can`t be lack of public
enthusiasm about the man himself. Why hasn`t the
Richard III Society itself taken up the task of writing
one? There must be enough talent among it`s membership
to do so! And enough clout worldwide to get it shown.

maggie was a highly intelligent, well connected, manipulative power hungry control freak. she was a true machavellian woman. do what it takes to survive and eradicate your enemies by force or slander.
hold your friends near, and your enemies closer.
and...most importantly above all else appear pious and demure when necessary. she knew "who" she was, and how to survive.

I wonder if I could write a short twenty minute or so play about Richard III. Call it "Boswell." As it will take place right before the battle as he contemplates his life and role as king. Just an idea. And I almost promise to not quote you, John.

What would be the reasons for the pro-Richard plays
not being produced very often? The quality perhaps?
Scholarly Tudor indoctrination over the years? Or are
there other reasons? It surely can`t be lack of public
enthusiasm about the man himself. Why hasn`t the
Richard III Society itself taken up the task of writing
one? There must be enough talent among it`s membership
to do so! And enough clout worldwide to get it shown.

Margaret Beaufort is a definite suspect. More so than her husband, and a little more so than her son.

Re: Change of Topic:Margaret Beaufort

of all the things margaret did, i do not believe she killed the princes. that dishonour belongs to henry stafford, duke of buckingham. she may have played a role in spurring him on to doing it. but there are at least five sources that imply or outright state he did it. and the deed was done before he connected with her as she was off to visit "our lady" of worcester in august 1483.

margaret manipulated eliz woodville into agreeing to allow eliz of york to marry her son shortly after this event. why would woodville agree to her daughter marrying h7 to make him king, if the princes were still alive?

woodville wasn't as intelligent as margaret, but she was just as grasping and greedy.

richard himself declares his innocence at the time of the january 1484 parliament according to holinshed's chronicle. buckingham's widow goes on to align herself with the tudor faction after buckingham's death, and her coming out of sanctuary with woodville, her sister. catherine eventually married jasper tudor, h7's uncle.

richard's reputation was blackened by tudor propaganda. margaret and morton certainly played a role in this slander.

what i'm turning up by reading the older sources of info is:

george duke of clarence killed and/or betrayed edward son of h6 on the battlefield.
lord scales aka rivers killed h6.
richard had nothing to do with clarence's conviction/death. but buckingham did.
buckingham killed the princes.

i know there are more allegations against richard, i just can't remember them off the top of my head right now.

and..i'm so frustrated right now with this blasted sciatica and associated painkillers. i can't sit for any great length of time. nor can i focus on and retain info i'm reading. therefore, my research is on hold but:

this has resulted in my wondering if old h8, who suffered a serious fall while jousting during his reign..if part of his nasty temper was caused by sciatic pain.
because i'm certainly not my (ahem) cheery self.
i'm also left wondering..geez what did they do for people like me during that era.

First of all, I'm sorry to hear about your sciatica pain, my BF just had a shot in his back for the same pain and it helped none, he's still on pain meds to. (he drives a tractor trailor and is on temp. leave due to meds and he is also a pro drummer, both not good for back pain, so his life to is on hold) I myself am on pain meds due to crohns disease that is active at the moment and find it hard to remember alot of what I read, so I hope you feel better soon.
I can't remember where I read this but I read that Richard lll had the Princes moved to Middleham Castle shortly after he arrived in London, and after the battle of Bosworth and Richards death that it's believed that someone from Jaspers household (using his badge as identification) that they took the Princes from Middleham never to be seen again.

and..i'm so frustrated right now with this blasted sciatica and associated painkillers. i can't sit for any great length of time. nor can i focus on and retain info i'm reading. therefore, my research is on hold but:

this has resulted in my wondering if old h8, who suffered a serious fall while jousting during his reign..if part of his nasty temper was caused by sciatic pain.
because i'm certainly not my (ahem) cheery self.
i'm also left wondering..geez what did they do for people like me during that era.

I pondered appraoching the subject but he was looking rather annoyed with the whole thing as he noticed my library with Shakespeare on the shelf; I dropped the subject as we discussed other things...like the failure of Henry VII's reign and his son, Henry VIII. He said he might return if I start writing a short play about him....to make sure facts this time are set on paper.

One of Elizabeth's officials concocted the plot that eventually had Mary
beheaded. Please show me the evidence that points to Elizabeth's
involvement. in the plot of 1567. The plot was prefabricated by one of her
officials. I have come across no evidence linking her to it physically.
Elizabeth is related to me, and I will not besmirch her memory.

I don't have references at hand, but as I recall, Eliz I tried to have
Mary Queen of Scots executed on her verbal order, but the man the duty
fell to refused to do so without written orders, and eventually got them.

("Verbal orders" is a phrase that bugs me. It is supposed to mean
"oral orders" but it actually means "orders in words" -- what else,
telepathy?)

I'm related to her, too, and so are at least 1000,000 other living
people, but I don't think even family loyalty can exculpate her from
Mary Stewart's death.

Mary was framed for the murder of Darnley, almost certainly, but
mostly she died for being a potential rival to the aging childless
Elizabeth for the throne of England.

Do you actually think any group of conspirators could engineer the
execution of an annointed queen (of two countries) who was in
Elizabeth's custody, without Elizabeth's knowledge and permission?

There is also the possibility that no one killed the "princes"
(actually a duke and an uncrowned king) -- possibly they, or one of
them, died in a mishap involving an attempt to rescue them from the
Tower, or to recapture them from the erstwhile rescuers.

If a faction did try to get them away from Richard's custody, and the
attempt led to the death of one or both boys, I wouldn't expect the
perpetrators to make any announcement about a botched job.

a similiar scenario happened to r3. HOWEVER, the big difference is richard busted buckingham. elizabeth busted no one, and i don't think she was shy about using her power. ergo, elizabeth knew about the execution and condoned it by her silence/inaction. how much she was involved with the details remains up for debate.

At the end of the day, if Mary Q of S had managed to retain power in
her own country, she would not have been as vulnerable to the
intriguing of the various conspirators, both Catholic and Protestant,
in England.

How much the case against her was a put-up job will probably never be
known, but she was certainly a serious threat to Elizabeth and the
Protestant settlement in England. At least Elizabeth and/or her
ministers did the deed in the open, unlike her grandfather and his
cronies.

As you know, Paul, post-Bosworth genealogy is my thing and I photocopied two pages of Claire Cross' "Huntingdon" book. I shall consult these tomorrow.

Presumably, you mean heirs to Elizabeth i.e. given the Tydder's accession by conquest. It will not always be obvious who was a Catholic and who was not.

Presumably, you mean heirs to Elizabeth i.e. given the Tydder's accession by conquest. It will not always be obvious who was a Catholic and who was not.

Interesting that after Mary the next Catholic heir was Ferdinando

I have Bosworth ancestry. I descend from Jabin Bosworth, whose grandfather married into a Mayflower family.

Re: Richard III in Theatre

Just a thought, Shakespeare wrote plays about many kings, but no-where can I
find one about Henry Tydder. Now can anyone think of why he should take all
the time to write about Elizabeth's great grandfather, and father, but miss
out on the grandfather ? Maybe the truth would have not been very
politically correct, or he just wasn't interesting enough ?

Or maybe Elizabeth was aware of the truth with regard to her grandfather ?

Back to lurking mode !
