Getting to Shakespeare Country from London Marylebone is easy thanks to Chiltern's direct train services. All you have to do is sit back in air conditioned comfort and watch England's beautiful countryside roll by.

Chiltern Railways has also teamed up with Royal Shakespeare Company to provide a series of special late Saturday night trains from Stratford-upon-Avon to London.

The six special trains from Stratford-upon-Avon to London Marylebone (via Leamington Spa, Banbury, Bicester North, Haddenham and Thame Parkway and High Wycombe) will run from May to October.

The Specials operate on:

Saturday 30 May - As You Like It / The Winter's Tale

Saturday 27 June - As You Like It / The Winter's Tale

Saturday 11 July - The Comedy of Errors / The Winter's Tale / As You Like It

Saturday 8 August - As You Like It / Julius Caesar

Saturday 19 September - The Drunks / As You Like It

Saturday 3 October - As You Like It / The Winter's Tale

These trains can be used by everyone, but will give plenty of time for theatregoers to catch trains to London or the other stations on the route as they leave Stratford-upon-Avon at 23.20pm.

To book theatre tickets, please ring the RSC Ticket Hotline on 0844 800 1110 or book online.
