Noughts and Crosses

Work:: Noughts and Crosses (S1889277220)

In a story inspired by Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Noughts and Crosses challenges our perceptions of race, power and truth as it dramatises the thrilling love story of Sephy and Callum, two young people kept apart by bigotry, terrorism and injustice. Sephy, a Prime Minister's daughter from the powerful Crosses, falls for rebel Callum, son of a dangerous Nought agitator. Their desire to be together threatens family loyalties and sparks a growing political crisis.
