Our tribute to RSC Honorary Associate Artist Michael Pennington, who passed away on 10 May 2026 at the age of 82.

We have awarded two major prizes recognising excellence in creative practice and education, highlighting the enduring impact of Shakespeare across performance and learning.

A collaboration between the RSC and the Cultural Learning Alliance, the new findings about Dance, Drama and Music education have been shared at a parliamentary event.

A new book by the RSC and HarperCollins - available now - explores Shakespeare's fiercest female characters.
