PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ROMEO AND JULIET TOUR IS NOW SOLD OUT.

Thursday 20 April 2017 Performance 1-2pm Workshop 2.15pm-3pm

See Shakespeare differently with 1623 Theatre Company as they map the journey of literature’s most famous lovers, in this hour-long adaptation of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.

Charting the course of the central narrative - from Romeo and Juliet’s initial infatuation to their untimely demise - this fast-moving adaptation encapsulates all of the integral events of this tragic tale of love and woe.

Award-winning and innovative, 1623’s work promises to offer fresh insight into one of the most well-known stories ever staged, for audiences both young and old.

Please note:

  • Running time is 1 hour
  • Following the performances, 1623 are offering bespoke practical drama workshops to further explore the central themes and moments from the piece. These are subject to availability and limited to 30 participants per session
  • This production contains scenes of violence that are true to the original text. It is considered suitable from age 10+, but we would suggest that this should be subject to the group leader’s discretion and knowledge of the group attending
