Renaissance Theatre Company
In 1987, Kenneth Branagh co-founded the Renaissance Theatre Company. At that time, he stated "For me, Renaissance will be about actors being able to break the rules."

Amongst those invited to join the R.T.C and to "break the rules" were (from left) Derek Jacobi, Judi Dench, Kenneth Branagh, Geraldine McEwan and co-founder David Parfitt.
