Upcoming Patrons' Events

Patrons are invited to a range of exclusive events where they can learn more about creative processes, our ground-breaking education work and the impact of their support on the RSC and our communities.

We have just announced Co-Artistic Directors Daniel Evans and Tamara Harvey's 2025 summer season at the RSC, and hope you will join us at our events to celebrate. 

To become a Patron, or if you have any questions, please contact the Individual Giving Team via Patron@rsc.org.uk.
