Northern Shakespeare Company
'Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon 'em.'
Alan Brent, Founder and Executive Producer of The Northern Shakespeare Company in 2008 definitely falls into the last category.
As Chairman of the Yorkshire Region of Equity, Alan recognised the need for quality original performance of Shakespeare's work since most companies, including the Royal Shakespeare Company itself were modernising the works and often losing the spirit of the plays.
His unique position also gave great insight into the plight of the best actors in the country being tied to long term contracts thus denying them the time to develope their TV and Film Careers.
The Northern Shakespeare Company has at its disposal the Top Actors in the country. Many of them from major theatre companies including the iconic Globe, The National Theatre, and of course the Royal Shakespeare Company. Their quality is first rate, their performances five star.
We are established to perform original Shakespeare anywhere in the world within four weeks of booking.
