Adelaide Festival returns in March with a packed program of 48 shows over 17 days.
The second year run by joint artistic directors Neil Armfield and Rachel Healy – whose tenure has just been extended to 2021 – will include four world premieres, 14 Australian premieres and 13 events exclusive to Adelaide.
Bound to satiate fans of previous years’ marathon theatre events The James Plays and Roman Tragedies is the four-and-a-half hour Kings of War – a compression of Shakespeare's Henry V, three Henry VI plays (part I, II and III) and Richard III performed by a cast of 17 actors.
