An Exclusive Opportunity from the Theatre Royal Haymarket

Trevor Nunn continues his electrifying season as Artistic Director of the West End's most prestigious theatre.

Trevor Nunn said: "For my first season as Artistic Director of the Theatre Royal Haymarket, I have chosen three very different projects. Having begun with one of Rattigan's first plays, the semi-autobiographical Flare Path - last performed in the West End in 1943, I am then realizing a forty year old dream by at last directing Tom Stoppard's first masterpiece Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead with Samuel Barnett as Rosencrantz, Jamie Parker as Guildenstern and Tim Curry as The Player. This will be followed by my first production of Shakespeare's last play The Tempest, which will give me also my first opportunity to work with Ralph Fiennes, who will play Prospero".

	Early Booker Offer
	A verbally scintillating and richly inventive play, Tom Stoppard's first masterpiece Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead retells Hamlet through the eyes of two of its minor characters. Vaguely conscious that they are bit parts in a much bigger story of which they have no direct knowledge, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern hilariously and poignantly inhabit a world completely beyond their grasp. The cast features Samuel Barnett as Rosencrantz, Jamie Parker as Guildenstern and Tim Curry as The Player. Theatre Royal Haymarket customers can book tickets at the exclusive early booking rate of £36 (usually £51) for all performances from 16 June to 20 August (excl. 21 June) when booking by 21 April 2011.
Performances from 16 June – 20 August 2011

	Trevor Nunn directs Ralph Fiennes in William Shakespeare's The Tempest. Marooned and left to die on a remote island, Prospero can command spirits, create apparitions and manipulate the elements. By using his magic, he assembles his enemies to take revenge on them, and in the process awakens in Miranda, his teenage daughter, her first experience of love. The theme of reconciliation gives immense emotional force to Shakespeare's farewell to the stage.
Strictly Limited Season from 27 August – 29 October 2011
