Yes The RSC has stolen Shakespeare for its own ends. All patrons are encouraged to donate to other more diverse organisations rather than looking at the RSC as the last vestige for the promotion of Shakespearean art. The RSC is inward looking self promoting and exercises exclusion at the highest level and offers no resolution or dialogue which encourages original creativity and understanding.
Spectacular. Here you have Fool and Lear, both "off" in their speech in wild ways, and then poor Kent shows up as normal and good as day is long, just trying to get them all in out of the rain. How to make absolutely everything out of dialogue, because what else have you got as a playwright, before film and CG and fancy stage contraptions?
