Theatre Royal Bath today announces the opening productions of the Ralph Fiennes / Theatre Royal Bath season taking place from June 2025.
The season opens with the world premiere of a new play by David Hare, GRACE PERVADES. The play, to be directed by Jeremy Herrin, and co-produced with his company Second Half Productions, tells the extraordinary story of Henry Irving and Ellen Terry, the greatest stars of the Victorian stage, and Ellen’s troubled and brilliant children – Edith Craig and Edward Gordon Craig – who made their own profound contribution to the development of British theatre. Ralph Fiennes will play Henry Irving.
The season continues with William Shakespeare’s AS YOU LIKE IT directed by Ralph Fiennes and starring Gloria Obianyo as Rosalind and Harriet Walter as Jaques.
Bob Crowley will design both productions.
