Richard III
 
Rick Fonté self-produced his sliced and diced version of Shakespeare (mixed with Colley Cibber’s rewrites) in a small theatre with a cast far too large for the stage.  Te soundtrack featured Nine Inch Nails, Korn and Massive Attack, so you get an idea of the feel of the show.
This show is also the first to feature one of Rick’s best collaborators, actor Brad Fletcher, who played a very young and dashing Dick the 3.  
“I want to go on record here in case my professor ever reads this website, I still can’t believe that I was the only one in the class to actually fully stage a productions and I still only received a B+, those are some severely f*cked up priorities.”
