The Royal Shakespeare Company

The Royal Shakespeare Company aims to keep audiences in touch with Shakespeare as our contemporary – understanding his work through today’s artists, actors and writers. Therefore the Company’s repertoire not only includes the work of Shakespeare and his contemporaries, but classic plays by international dramatists and work by living writers.

The RSC also produces extensive education and outreach work to engage more people with Shakespeare’s work and live theatre. The RSC’s work is performed throughout the year in Stratfordupon-Avon, regularly in London and throughout the United Kingdom.

Although the UK is the Company’s home, its audiences are global with regular performances in international theatres. For more information about the Royal Shakespeare Company visit www.rsc.org.uk
