Upcoming Patrons' Events

Patrons are invited to a range of exclusive events where they can learn more about creative processes, our ground-breaking education work and the impact of their support on the RSC and our communities.

We have just announced Daniel Evans and Tamara Harvey's first season at the RSC as Co-Artistic Directors and hope you will join us at our events to celebrate.
