The ambition of Daniel and Tamara’s first season, and the range of artist collaborations within it, speaks for itself. I look forward to working with the Co-ADs, ED Andrew Leveson and the whole RSC team, to deliver meaningful commercial sector partnerships that bring RSC productions to the broadest range of audiences in the UK and internationally.”

Leveson, Harvey and Evans commented:
