@theartsshelf: Following its critically acclaimed World Premiere at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, the spectacular Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) production of George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones: The Mad King - adapted by Duncan Macmillan and directed by Dominic Cooke - will open in London's West End in 2027. Venue and production dates will be announced in due course. George R. R. Martin’s GAME of Thrones: The Mad King received its World Premiere at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon on Saturday 8 August. The final performance is tomorrow, Saturday 5 September, following a completely sold-out season. Creator and Executive Producer George R. R. Martin said: “I had an absolutely splendid time in Stratford upon Avon for the premier and am thrilled the production will be moving to London to share the experience with a wider audience. It promises to be an exhilarating journey.” A sweeping new stage epic spanning the final years before the events of the novels, this powerful drama reveals a legendary chapter of Westerosi history. #GameofThrones #GeorgeRRMartin#Theatre#Westeros#LondonTheatre
