We discovered that the RSC did tours by chance whilst we sheltered from the rain. Lucky we did as the tour was amazing and David our guide was excellent and provided an excellent narrative of the history of this theatre and its history. Easily navigated even for those who are less ambulant. It offers a great insight into this building and the history. Do this if you are in town.

Went to the costume tour with Josh in the afternoon. Then saw The Boy who harnessed the wind in the evening. Such a beautiful place with amazing staff and talented actors.

This review is related to the behind-the-scenes tour that you can do at 10:15 AM. I’m sure the play performances are exquisite. If you are a big fan of the behind-the-scenes tour will be indispensable for you. If you have ever been backstage for a theater, you may find this to be of interest Otherwise, it really wasn’t that interesting of a tour and I wish I wouldn’t have gone on it. I do hope to see a play here sometime in the future.

No matter the performance being staged, the quality and settings are superb! As a larger lady, the seating was a bit snug, but doable! All the staff there are super friendly and very helpful and have just become members, so even better deals etc!
