Whispers from the Wings

This is a diary of our productions, explaining what's happening through the rehearsal process. Our current bloggers are:

Ben Deery

Ben Deery  returns to the RSC following last year's stint as Edmund in the Young People's Shakespeare production of King Lear. This time he is playing Publius in Titus Andronicus and Lieutenant Sponger in A Mad World My Masters on the Swan Theatre stage.

Rose Reynolds

Rose Reynolds  makes her debut at the RSC, playing Lavinia in Titus Andronicus and company in both Mad World My Masters and Candide. Passionate, feisty country mouse at heart. Must love long walks and possess ample knowledge of the weather.

Andrew French

Andrew French  is playing Decius Brutus and Titinius in our production of Julius Caesar. This is his first production with the RSC. A company that he has waited a long time to play for.

Norwich

Everyone tells you about the amount of churches in Norwich. And the amount of pubs. Suffice to say there are a lot of both.

Well, press night is fast approaching. We're all beginning to work our way out of the initial shock of the first previews and into something a little more comfortable.

New York, New York. If Edmund can make it here, he'll make it anywhere.

Thus Paul Copley comes to the end of his first speech of the storm scene, a spine-tingling and majestic growl to which we have become accustomed over the past few months.

Over 'n' out

First of all, I'm gonna kick off this blog by saying 'sorry'. Sorry that I've neglected you all for the last two months. The show has been all-consuming and (stupidly) once I missed a glut of blogs – I soon found it difficult to catch up.

I have my sofa positioned directly in front of my living room windows, so I can view the autumn river-scenery in HD widescreen. I make a mental snapshot of the view every morning and let it inspire my day.

So we had our first week in new York and in our first show I had an amazing experience where a young person offered me $20 dollars as poor Tom when I asked for 'charity'.

The shape of things

Well here we are. Stratford-upon-Avon. I'm sat in my living room, in my digs, overlooking the river. It's beautiful. Both the view and the feeling of being here again. These last two weeks have been incredibly taxing on us physically and emotionally. And the shows are looking good!
