RSC Now Accepting Submissions for Summer Open Air Performances
The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) is offering amateur and semi-professional theatre groups, and schools and colleges the opportunity to put on a play by Shakespeare or his contemporaries at The Dell, the Company's open air performance space in Stratford-upon-Avon, on Saturdays and Sundays throughout summer 2015.
Now in its tenth year, The Dell provides a great platform for these groups to work with the RSC and to present their work to a large audience. Last summer's season of open air theatre at The Dell saw over 9000 people watch 39 performances by 19 theatre companies, schools, universities and community groups.
The Dell Co-ordinator Laura Keating said:
"The Dell offers amateur and semi-professional theatre companies and schools and colleges a fantastic chance to perform at and work with the RSC.
"Last year The Dell enjoyed another successful season, and included companies such as the Royal Navy Theatre Association performing A Midsummer Night's Dream with a cast of over 30, and a group from New Hampshire who raised funds to make the journey from America to Stratford to perform Hamlet."
Performance times at The Dell are available on Saturdays and Sundays from 6 June to 30 August 2015. There are two performance slots a day, although the exact time of each performance may vary.
Anyone interested in performing at The Dell will need to submit an application form which can be downloaded from the RSC's website: www.rsc.org.uk/thedell
The closing date for receipt of completed applications is Monday 23 March 2015.
