| The European Theatre Group was founded in 1957 by a group of students that included Trevor Nunn and Sir Derek Jacobi (now patron), who took 'Romeo and Juliet' on tour across most of Switzerland for a period of just under two weeks. The tour was such a great success that we have toured a Shakespeare play around Europe every winter since. The tour has now matured from its humble origins - half a dozen actors and a set transported in two fruit vans - into a challenging coach bound operation for a company of 25, with planning beginning in March for the following December's production. For 51 years, the ETG has developed a reputation at home and abroad for producing exciting, innovative interpretations of classic texts. We provide successive generations of company members and audiences with challenging experiences completely unimaginable elsewhere in British theatre. With Cambridge degrees only lasting three years there is a rapid turnover of people within ETG and hence a close network of handing over knowledge and opportunities to future generations.
