- Sep 13, 2017
The final production in this year's Summer of Love season is a brand new piece from Tristan Bernays, telling the story of the famous warrior queen.

BWW Review: CYMBELINE, Barbican, 3 November 2016
by Rona Kelly
- Nov 4, 2016
Over the next six years, the RSC aims to produce every single Shakespeare play. Its 2016 season features Cymbeline, one of the lesser known but not lesser performed plays; this production is a transfer from Stratford-Upon-Avon, and there have been two productions at Shakespeare's Globe this year alone. Why the sudden revival? A fool boasts 'Britain is a world by itself' (and no, I don't mean Nigel Farage). In a post-Brexit Britain, these words ring truer than ever before in this bold production, which ironically seems to be lacking a sense of unity and cohesion too.
