Royal Shakespeare Company Live: Troilus and Cressida

Director
Gregory Doran
Certificate
12A

Troilus and Cressida swear they will always be true to one another. But in the seventh year of the siege of Troy their innocence is tested, and exposed to the savage corrupting influence of war. Are those tragic consequences on the horizon?

Percussionist Evelyn Glennie collaborates with RSC Artistic Director Gregory Doran to give The Bard’s epic tale of love and war a satirical, futuristic, Mad Max-style makeover. The play is broadcast live from Stratford-uon-Avon.
