The National Theatre Live

Tue Feb 7th

The Rosendale Theatre is excited to present broadcasts from the NATIONAL THEATRE in London.  Once a month | 2:00 PM | $12/$10 members

The National Theatre stages over 20 theatre productions a year. These are put on in our three auditoriums – the Olivier, Lyttelton and Cottesloe Theatres – and in these three theatres, we present a mix of new plays and classics, with up to six productions in repertory at any one time.

It aims constantly to re-energise the great traditions of the British stage and to expand the horizons of audiences and artists alike. It aspires to reflect in its repertoire the diversity of the nation’s culture. At its Studio, the National offers a space for research and development for the NT’s stages and the theatre as a whole. Through the NT Education Department, tomorrow’s audiences are addressed. Through an extensive programme of Platform performances, backstage tours, foyer music, exhibitions, and free outdoor entertainment it recognises that the theatre doesn’t begin and end with the rise and fall of the curtain. And by touring, the National shares its work with audiences in the UK and abroad.

To purchase tickets in advance for any of these events by mail, (or consider the whole series as a gift), please send a check payable to the Rosendale Theatre Collective, Inc, att: NQ. Please memo: “name of play”, or “all four” and send to: Rosendale Theatre, P.O. Box 250, Rosendale, NY 12404. Include an email/phone contact for acknowledgement. Or request a gift notice. All tickets held at the box office.
