Head That Wears A Crown: Speeches For Royal Men

Description

Internationally acclaimed actor and Tony Award winner, Alan Cumming performs Shakespeare's most important and beloved royal speeches, including 'To be or not to be,' 'Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow,' 'Now is the winder of our discontent,' 'O that this too sullied flesh would melt' and more. All the speeches were personally chosen by Cumming. Michael Boyd adds, 'Cumming brings to Shakespeare the lyricism of a genuine singer, the sharp edge of a wicked comic, and the embodied intelligence of a major actor.'
