The Wooster Group and the Royal Shakespeare Company are collaborating on a production of TROILUS & CRESSIDA that will have its world premiere as a part of the World Shakespeare Festival. Produced by the RSC, the World Shakespeare Festival forms part of London 2012 Festival which is the culmination of the Cultural Olympiad of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The Festival features international interpretations of Shakespeare's work. When the RSC approached The Wooster Group about a collaboration, we found the proposal irresistible—the lodestone of British culture as manifest in the RSC versus the experimental technique of our New York ensemble. Let the games begin!
