Royal Shakespeare Company unveils new adaptation of Roald Dahl's 'The BFG,' plus star casting of Freema Agyeman and Simon Russell Beale.

Royal Shakespeare Company excited to stage Roald Dahl’s ‘inspirational’ BFG - The stage adaptation by playwright Tom Wells will delight families over the festive period across a 10-week run at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

Roald Dahl’s ‘The BFG’ will become a stage spectacular with flying giants by the UK's Royal Shakespeare Company, Deadline's Baz Bamigboye writes exclusively.

Adding new, possibly not-intended context to the line from Macbeth where Shakespeare calls his three witches “posters of the sea and land,” The Royal Shakespeare Company is launching a new video game that reimagines the weird sisters as modern-day computer hackers, snooping around the desktop of Lady Macbeth.

Playwright Tom Wells will adapt the story about the Big Friendly Giant who captures an orphan named Sophie and brings her back to Giant Country.

Details have been announced for the RSC's Summer 2025 season and upcoming festive family show, The BFG. Learn more about the full season lineup and how to get tickets here!

Macbeth, William Shakespeare’s iconic play, is being reimagined as an interactive video game with a neo-noir vibe — and it’s being developed in part by the Royal Shakespeare Company. The game, titled Lili, is a “screen life thriller video game” where you’ll have access to a modern-day Lady Macbeth’s personal devices, according to a press release.

Look like the innocent flower but be the serpent under it in the Royal Shakespeare Company's first ever video game. Announced on Wednesday, the British theatre company has teamed up with New York indie game studio iNK Stories ( Revolution: Black Friday) to create Lili, a thriller noir game focused on the damned spot-laden Lady Macbeth.
