    We are calling out the unacceptable and abhorrent phrase used in today’s Sunday Times listings around our productions of Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet. It devalues the work of RSC Artists and we will be formally responding to John Dugdale and Emma Tucker.

    Hamlet IS great but I prefer A Midsummer Night's Bean.

    We are deeply saddened to announce the death of Sir Antony Sher, Honorary Associate Artist and husband of Artistic Director, Gregory Doran. Read our full statement and further tributes on our website: rsc.org.uk/news/death-of-…
    Catherine Mallyon, RSC Executive Director and Erica Whyman, Acting Artistic Director, said: ‘We are deeply saddened by this news and our thoughts and sincere condolences are with Gregory, and with Antony’s family and their friends at this devastating time. ‘Antony had a long association with the RSC and a hugely celebrated career on stage and screen. Antony’s last production with the Company was in the two-hander Kunene and The King, written by his friend and fellow South African actor, writer and activist, John Kani. ‘Antony was deeply loved and hugely admired by so many colleagues. He was a ground-breaking role model for many young actors, and it is impossible to comprehend that he is no longer with us. We will ensure friends far and wide have the chance to share tributes and memories in the days to come.'
