There's no substitute for live theatre (well we would say that), but you can still watch lots of fantastic RSC shows online.
Digital Theatre
Digital Theatre is a one-off rental and subscription streaming service, allowing you to watch over 150 world-class theatre productions from the RSC, Shakespeare's Globe, The Royal Opera House and many more.
You can watch our 34-play RSC Shakespeare collection (the same as featured on Marquee TV, but excludes A Midsummer Night's Dream) either by renting individual titles for 48 hours, or by subscribing to the service (monthly or annually).
