RSC offers 25,000 tickets at £25 to ‘throw open doors’ to diverse crowds

Royal Shakespeare Company’s new artistic directors team up with artists from around the world to appeal to wider audience

The Royal Shakespeare Company is attempting to attract new audiences by offering 25,000 tickets at £25 as the theatre’s new artistic directors aim to “throw open the doors” to a more diverse crowd.

The RSC’s first joint artistic directors in four decades, Daniel Evans and Tamara Harvey, announced an inaugural season packed with politically tinged plays as they try to reinvigorate the former home of the bard.
