The Old Vic 2017 Season will feature Daniel Radcliffe

News, West End
The Old Vic London

The Old Vic has announced three productions today which will join their already anounced schedule of shows for 2017. The new shows are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax and Girl From The North Country. The Old Vic celebrates the 50th anniversary of Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead which premiered on its stage. This is the play that made Tom Stoppard’s name overnight. Against the backdrop of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, this mind-bending situation comedy sees two hapless minor characters, Rosencrantz (Daniel Radcliffe) and Guildenstern (Joshua McGuire), take centre stage. Increasingly out of their depth, the young double act stumble their way in and out of the action of this iconic drama. In a literary hall of mirrors, Stoppard’s brilliantly funny, existential labyrinth sees us witness the ultimate identity crisis. Season 25 February – 29 April 2017 – Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead Tickets are now on … Read more
