David Tennant Treat 4 Today for Monday 21st August 2023

The David Tennant Treat 4 Today is the ninth production diary for Richard II which was posted by the Royal Shakespeare Company on YouTube in 2013.

The description for this video is:
'Richard II has now opened in Stratford-upon-Avon to positive audience reactions and reviews. In this diary we go behind the scene in the lead up to a preview-show.

Keith Osborne, who plays Sir Stephen Scroop, meets us at the stage door and takes us into the dressing rooms for pre-shows preparations.

James Kitto, the duty manager, greets us front of house as the team prepare to welcome the public.

The doors open and theatre-goers arrive. Backstage, Klare Roger from the stage management team begins the count down to curtain up with a thirty minute call...'

David Tennant starred as Richard II in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of the play in Stratford-upon-Avon from Thursday 19th October until Saturday 16th November 2013 before transferring at the Barbican Centre in London from Monday 13th December 2013 until Saturday 24th January 2014. The performance of 13th November was screened in various cinemas worldwide and later released on DVD.

David Tennant reprised his role as Richard II for the RSC Kings And Country cycle at the Barbican centre in January 2016 before transferring at the Brooklyn Academy Of Music (BAM) in NYC in March 2016.
