"The Royal Shakespeare Company is to end its partnership with BP at the end of the year following criticism of its links to the international oil giant.
The RSC said it 'could not ignore' the 'strength of feeling' against the deal.

'Young people are now saying clearly to us that the BP sponsorship is putting a barrier between them and their wish to engage with the RSC,' it said."
