Jonathan Bailey Conquers the Stage, Shines Like a Shakespearean Disco Ball at Richard II Press Night!

Buy Me A Coffee

Guess who’s back, back again—Bailey’s back, tell a friend! That’s right! Our favorite Bridgerton heartthrob, Jonathan Bailey, has ditched the Regency-era corsets (for now) and slipped into something a little more… medieval. The 36-year-old star made a grand return to the stage on Tuesday (February 18) for the press night of Richard II at London’s Bridge Theatre, proving once again that he can do it all—act, charm, and possibly make Shakespeare sound like a Netflix binge-watch.

And let’s just say, the critics are eating it up like it’s free cake at a wedding. Bailey’s performance has been hailed as nothing short of spectacular, reminding us all that he’s not just a man with perfectly coiffed hair—he’s got range.

Bailey on Being a King:
“It’s a feast of a play,” Jonathan told BBC, probably while majestically swirling a goblet of metaphorical power. “It really speaks to our times.” Which is true—because let’s face it, *Richard II* is basically a centuries-old drama about a dude losing his job, and who hasn’t felt that stress?

But for Bailey, it’s about more than just ruling on stage. “If 10 people per show come and see Shakespeare for the first time, then I’m doing something right.” Talk about goals! He’s out here making Shakespeare cool again—move over, English teachers!

Where and When Can You Witness This Royalty in Action?
Richard II is running in London through May 10, so if you want to see Bailey strut his Shakespearean stuff, get those tickets *now*. Otherwise, you’ll have to settle for rewatching Bridgerton and whispering “Your Grace” to your TV.

Fashion Alert!
Oh, and in case you were wondering—because obviously, we were—Jonathan rocked an outfit by Zegna for the photo call. Regal, refined, and undoubtedly expensive. But hey, when you’re playing a king, you’ve got to dress the part!

Now go forth and witness Jonathan Bailey rule the stage like the true Shakespearean snack that he is! 👑🎭
