Our culture and values

OUR CAUSE

We celebrate Shakespeare’s transformative impact on the world by conducting a radical theatrical experiment.

Inspired and informed by the unique historic playing conditions of two beautiful iconic theatres, our diverse programme of work harnesses the power of performance, cultivates intellectual curiosity and excites learning to make Shakespeare accessible for all.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We commit to facing and understanding our historic bias and racism, and to making the necessary changes to become an anti-racist, pro-equality organisation. We acknowledge that to be anti-racist is to take positive, conscious and intentional action against racism.
