Romeo and Juliet - Shakespeare Up Close

Romeo and Juliet

Work:: Romeo and Juliet (S4789)

The story of frustrated young (illegally young in modern terms) love and death and the vendetta between two families in a tight-knit Italian community. One of Shakespeare's most popular and enduring dramas it has also been re-done as film, ballet, musical (most notably "West Side Story") and ice spectacular!
Author Shakespeare

Production:: Shakespeare Up Close (T0502355771)

Summer 2018. London. A city of extremes divided by wealth and property. A world of postcode street fights, catcalling and bants. In the middle of this a boy gatecrashes a fancy party and falls in love (for at least the second time that week). But this girl is different. She doesn't want to hear his cheesy lines and she's not interested in his moves. They realise that they are the best and the worst thing that could ever have happened to each other. They fall in love. And the world comes crashing down. Six actors fuse physical theatre with Shakespeare's sparkling words in a fastpaced 90 minutes.
