Upcoming events

  • In Conversation: Bertie Carvel

    Stratford Methodist Church
    Friday 29 August, 4pm

    Bertie will be joining us while he is playing Leontes in The Winter's Tale this Season. Last time he was at the RSC he was completely unrecognisable in his amazing performance as the original Miss Trunchbull in Matilda the Musical.

    Bertie’s career has been extensive on stage and screen and includes starring in the title role in Dalgleish. Bertie has played both Tony Blair (The Crown) and Donald Trump (The 47th at The Old Vic). He is truly a versatile actor, and we looking forward to asking him all about it.

    Tickets £6 Friends/Patrons, £7 Guests, £3 under 25s

  • In Conversation: Andrew Leveson

    Stratford Methodist Church
    Tuesday 30 September, 4pm

    Some of you might have already met Andrew at our Shakespeare’s Birthday Reception this year, but if you weren’t able to join us for that event, this is the perfect opportunity to say hello. Andrew is the RSC’s Executive Director, working alongside Daniel and Tamara, and due to this has an extremely busy diary and an interesting role to play in the running of the Company. We are thrilled that Andrew has found the time to meet with the Friends to tell us about his work and to answer any questions you may wish to ask.
