Royal Shakespeare Theatre

Rain or shine, one of the places for a family day out in Warwickshire is the home of the Royal Shakespeare Company. This major visitor attraction includes the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and two other theatres in Stratford-upon-Avon – the intimate Swan Theatre, which shares the front-of-house space, and The Other Place, located nearby.

Why not surprise the family with tickets to a family-friendly performance? Choose from drama including Shakespeare’s plays, family musicals, Christmas shows, comedy and more.

In addition to wonderful live performances, visitors can join guided tours to explore parts of the building that are not normally open to the public. Tours offer a chance to discover the Royal Shakespeare Theatre auditorium, the newly developed Costume Workshop and the theatre tower, which offers panoramic views of the town.

The building is free to enter but charges apply for certain activities.

Please see the Royal Shakespeare Company’s website to confirm all details before visiting.
