This July and August, Lincoln Center Festival and Park Avenue Armory, in association with The Ohio State University, will bring the acclaimed Royal Shakespeare Company to New York for an unprecedented six-week residency. For the first time in its history of visiting the United States, the RSC will perform five of Shakespeare's plays-As You Like It, Julius Caesar, King Lear, Romeo and Juliet, and The Winter's Tale-in repertory for 44 performances with a cast whose members will have worked together for three intense years with RSC Artistic Director Michael Boyd by the time they arrive in New York.

The performances will take place on a full-scale replica of the RSC's thrust-stage. Built in England, disassembled and shipped to New York, and reconstructed in the Armory's soaring Wade Thompson Drill Hall for the occasion, the Scarlet & Gray stage will bring actors and audiences closer together and re-create the sensation of experiencing Shakespeare as it is performed in Stratford-Upon-Avon.

A press preview was held today, June 30 at the Park Avenue Armory where the space was revealed, and BroadwayWorld was there to capture images from the event.
