Ramin Gray, the artistic director of Actors Touring Company (ATC), gave an interview to theatre writer Carl Woodward to mark the company’s 40th anniversary. Five of the women are understood to have made formal complaints to Equity, the actors’ trade union. In a statement, ATC announced that it had “policies in place to deal with any allegations of misconduct, whatever the nature of those allegations. The theatre said that no complaints of inappropriate conduct had been made formally or informally by any members of the company or the local chorus featured in The Suppliant Women. Last week, the Old Vic revealed that it had received 20 individual allegations against its former artistic director Kevin Spacey, who is yet to respond.
