Romeo and Juliet

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

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! A brand-new adaption set on the streets of Northern Ireland's capital in 1998 - the year the Good Friday agreement was signed. Led with movement and a banging 90s soundtrack played by a live band, this is a fast-paced, modern take on a timeless classic, proving Shakespeare's as relevant today as he's always been - a fragile peace is only as durable as opposing sides permit...
