RSC ten years since reopening. (44799731)
TEN years ago last Thursday (11th March) the Queen officially reopened the Royal Shakespeare Companyâs main theatre after its extensive rebuild and refurbishment.
The three-year project cost £112million and was funded by the RSC with help from the Arts Council and Lottery money.
The Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the Swan were closed during the work, and productions â including the blockbusting Matilda â went on at the Courtyard Theatre (now called The Other Place).
The RST, aka the main house, got a new auditorium with more than 1,000 seats and a colonnade linking it with the Swan Theatre. A new gallery space, restaurant, café, four bars and a new riverside walk were also created.
