On site as the new Royal Shakespeare Theatre takes shape
In November 2008 the giant roof beams were winched into position over what will be the new auditorium. The thrust stage is clearly visible and the viewing tower, which will give visitors a fantastic view of Stratford Upon Avon and the surrounding countryside, starts its upward progress as the lift shaft begins to take shape. In this podcast we are on site for a tour behind the scenes of the drama of the rebirth of what promises to be an iconic theatre of the future.
