He cast the first disabled actor to play Richard III, cast female actors as male characters in a 2018 production of Troilus and Cressida and introduced the RSC’s first season of female-only directors.
Doran’s notable productions include Macbeth starring Antony Sher, as well as Hamlet in 2008, starring Doctor Who actor David Tennant and Olivier and Tony Award-winning theatre veteran Sir Patrick Stewart. Speaking before an appearance at The Times and Sunday Times Cheltenham Literature Festival, Doran said that he hopes the “pendulum will swing” and it will become balanced.
