In the Press:
"From start to finish, the cast seamlessly moves through Richard of Gloucester's unyielding march to England's throne with performances of note that delight, inspire, and chill the blood... Emily Rankin's Buckingham is the quintessential co-conspirator, until her conscience gets the best of her."
—Austin Chronicle
"Emily Rankin as Buckingham enjoys plotting evil deeds with the Richard and is heartbreaking when the tables turn."
