Almeida's new Artistic Director
Fri, 8th Feb 13Rupert Goold to be new AD at the Almeida.
This August, Robert Goold will take over the Artistic Directorship of the Almeida from Michael Attenborough who is standing down after 11 years.
Michael Attenborough said: "I can pay Rupert no higher compliment than point to the fact that we are co-producing two shows with his company Headlong (one of which he is directing himself) during my final season up to the end of 2013. I am truly thrilled to be passing the theatre on to, not only a bold and brilliant director, but someone who takes equal delight in the promotion of other artists and the same ambitious, progressive programming for which the Almeida has always been known."
