Richard III - An Arab Tragedy this evening, and then Henry VI pt 1 tomorrow evening. Some friends of mine are coming to up see those along with Henry VI pts 2-3 on Saturday; one of their number dropped out at the last minute, so they invited me along, as I can get to Stratford after work (snow permitting).

Out of curiosity I was just looking at the RSC web site and noticed that it is possible to see Henry VI part 1 on Friday, parts 2 & 3 on Saturday followed by Richard III. We saw all three parts of Henry VI last August and Richard III last Saturday. The whole production is excellent. The same company are doing Richard II, Henry IV parts 1 & 2 and Henry V later this year.

I'd be interested in your opinion of Richard III-An Arab Tragedy. I've found that Richard III adapts very well to different settings.

I hope you get to Stratford OK. We would have the same problem with public transport in the evening, but we tend to drive anyway. By the way, it is only £1-50 to park in the main car parks in the evening.

Yes, we drive to Stratford rather than using public transport. However, there is no railway station at Halesowen and to get a coach would probably take us as long to a suitable coach station as it takes to get to Straftord. I also get travel sick on coaches.
