Paata Tsikurishvil's Richard III will examine the collision of the physical and cyber worlds, and the destruction of human life as the world grows more automated and less personal.

The cast also includes Matt Stover, Maryam Najafzada, Thomas Beheler, Philip Fletcher, Jordan Clark Halsey, Aaron Kan, Tim Proudkii, Nutsa Tediashvili, Ana Tsikurishvili and Scean Aaron.
