Arts at the Armory
The Royal Shakespeare Company
Presented by Lincoln Center Festival and Park Avenue Armory
in association with The Ohio State University
July 6 – August 14, 2011
Witness a milestone event in the New York theatrical calendar as the Royal Shakespeare Company brings to life five of Shakespeare’s greatest plays.
For a period of three years, the RSC’s devoted actors have honed their craft as a repertory company, working together to deepen their understanding of the works they present. This unprecedented project boldly comes to fruition under RSC Artistic Director Michael Boyd, as 44 actors have inseparably bonded with these five productions alongside a brilliant team of theater artists. The company presents an acclaimed, rich repertoire on a specially-constructed thrust stage that imaginatively recreates the RSC’s home in Stratford-upon-Avon, installed in Park Avenue Armory’s soaring Wade Thompson Drill Hall.
Presented by Lincoln Center Festival and Park Avenue Armory in association with The Ohio State University. Five of the six following productions will appear as part of Lincoln Center Festival 2011: King Lear, Antony and Cleopatra, Julius Caesar, The Winter’s Tale, Romeo and Juliet, and As You Like It.
