The Royal Shakespeare Company has already started their Park Avenue Armory residency, where they will through August 14th, and while there will be no rabbits killed... one of the cast did just get injured earlier today (Shakespeare: Turn Off The Dark!). According to the Daily News, the production is "physical and rough," and just "hours ago, things got a little too rough for Sam Troughton, who plays Romeo. The show was stopped temporarily," when Troughton suffered a knee injury during today’s matinee performance." As of now he'll only be replaced for today.
If you want to see the play, which takes place on an amazing full-scale replica of the company's Stratford-upon-Avon stage, tickets cost anywhere from $32 to $200 a piece. However, there will be $25 rush seats available every week through an online lottery. The lottery opens on Tuesdays at 10 a.m. and closes Thursdays at the stroke of midnight.
