Spring at the Court
Dominic Cooke has announced the spring 2009 season at the Royal Court.
"It is impossible," he said, "to express just how exhilarating
it is to be Artistic Director of the unique group of people who make
up the Royal Court, especially in these shifting and perplexing times.
The Royal Court explores today's headlines, tomorrow's inheritance,
and the shockwaves of our recent past. Our programme for the next six
months will tackle head on what it means to be alive now, with the legacy
of the last century on our shoulders."
The season consists of:
