Allison DeBusk/Guilfordian

Guilford College’s theatre department ended their year with the Shakespearian epic, “House of York.” A combination of all of Shakespeare’s histories from “Henry IV,” parts I through III, and “Richard III,” as well as other outside sources ,including historical letters, petitions and laws, “House of York” was created by Guilford College’s own David Hammond. With over 32 characters played by 16 actors, it was truly an ensemble production. Unfortunately, the run was cut short due to a backstage injury during Act I on the 24th, but the cast and crew still
managed two full performances.
