The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) plans 6 at the Roundhouse Theatre
The Roundhouse Theatre (Chalk Farm, London) will be home to six of William Shakespeare's plays starting on the 30th November and running through to the 5th February 2010.
The full scale productions will include Romeo & Juliet, King Lear, The Winter's Tale, Anthony & Cleopatra, Julius Caesar and As You Like It, marking the first opportunity to see the RSC in London since it began to work from it’s Stratford-Upon-Haven hide out back in January 2009.
As well as the grown up shows there will also be two Young People's Shakespeare performances, Hamlet & The Comedy of Errors, especially designed for children and families.
Priority booking will be in place with tickets going out to RSC full members on the 30th June and to Roundhouse members on the 19th July. Us lowly non-members will have to wait until 10th September. I'm not normally a big fan of membership stuff like this. I reckon I probably would have been one of the first in front of the Gestapo during the advent of the Third Reich because I didn't fancy all that party business. I probably wouldn't have bothered with the Winter Relief Fund either, the robbin' can'ts.
However, I hope there's a few tickets spare for The Winter's Tale come the 10th September. Although, maybe that's why they have the membership malarky; to keep riff raff like me out. Honestly, all I want to do is sit quietly and watch the show. Where's the 'arm in that. Oh blow winds, and crack your cheeks! Rage, blow!
