註釋

"Richard of Bordeaux" is a play by Elizabeth MacKintosh, best known by another of her pen names, Josephine Tey. The play tells the story of Richard II of England in a romantic fashion, emphasizing the relationship between Richard and his first wife, Queen Anne of Bohemia. She wrote the play after seeing actor John Gielgud play Shakespeare's Richard II at the Old Vic Theatre in London, and submitted it to him for production. The play was a major hit in 1933, playing a significant role in turning its director and leading man John Gielgud into a major star. Audiences found its portrayal of medieval characters speaking like modern people refreshing.
