The BBC has unveiled shows that will be part of its Lights Up plans in March and April.
Featuring a total of 18 broadcasts on television, radio and iPlayer, the series of productions will support companies and artists affected by the pandemic.
The RSC s production of
The Winter s Tale, which was weeks away from its run before halted in March, will be filmed and broadcast by the company under the direction of deputy artistic director Erica Whyman to coincide with Shakespeare s birthday. Whyman s production moves Shakespeare s classic to the 1950s against a backdrop of the Cold War. The venue has also revealed plans for an outdoor season – opening this summer. The cast includes Ben Caplan as Camillo, Andrew French as Polixenes, Amanda Hadingue as Paulina, Kemi-Bo Jacobs as Hermione and Joseph Kloska as Leontes, with set design by Tom Piper, costumes by Madeleine Girling, and music by Isobel Waller-Bridge.
