Original Note:
William Shakespeare died in 1616. This is an adaptation of his play. As with most adaptations, creative freedom is welcomed. Women playing male characters and vice versa is common. There is no reason why someone with a disability should not perform in a play. https://www.npr.org/2022/07/10/1110359040/why-it-matters-that-danai-gurira-is-taking-on-richard-iii https://amp.theguardian.com/stage/article/2024/may/21/the-level-of-hate-was-dangerous-michelle-terry-on-the-backlash-to-her-casting-as-richard-iii
