I didn’t see the show, but it doesn’t seem to be about miscasting. There seems to have been a concerted effort to erase any references to the character being fat, so as to…what? Not offend anyone, I guess. Future productions of “Richard III” will have to get rid of any references to the hunchback now, I guess. Nothing onstage but what is perfectly palatable to all?
