This is an easy-to-read retelling of William Shakespeare’s history play 'Richard III.' People who read this retelling first will find the original play much easier to read and understand. In this play, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, murders his way to the throne of England. Do you know a language other than English? If you do, I give you permission to translate this book, copyright your translation, publish or self-publish it, and keep all the royalties for yourself. (Do give me credit, of course, for the original retelling.) I would like to see my retellings of classic literature used in schools, so I give permission to the country of Finland (and all other countries) to give copies of this book to all students forever. I also give permission to the state of Texas (and all other states) to give copies of this book to all students forever. I also give permission to all teachers to give copies of this book to all students forever. Teachers need not actually teach my retellings. Teachers are welcome to give students copies of my eBooks as background material. For example, if they are teaching Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey, teachers are welcome to give students copies of my Virgil’s Aeneid: A Retelling in Prose and tell students, 'Here’s another ancient epic you may want to read in your spare time.'

The director decided that the credits would feature a scene with the characters of the play eating a meal. No actual dialogue would be heard on TV during the rolling of the credits, only a murmur under some music. This left the cast free to...
