Summary
In late July 2022, in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, the RSC Live from Stratford-upon-Avon team completed the recording of the project’s thirty-third production. Richard III, which was shown in cinemas from 28 September, brought to a close the company’s Histories Cycle of the past decade. It also marked former artistic director Gregory Doran’s final production before the appointment of Daniel Evans and Tamara Harvey as co-artistic directors in September.
The team has also recorded a screen version of Blanche McIntyre’s production of All’s Well That Ends Well, but this was done in a very different mode from the familiar ‘classical’ form employed to date. With the projected screening of All’s Well on Sky Arts in the spring of 2023, the project remained two shows short of completing a First Folio canon for the screen, having adapted neither Henry VIII nor, perhaps more surprisingly, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Yet.
