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 Romeo and Juliet for the 21st century, distilling Shakespeare's words into just 80 minutes of raw theatre: turning feuds and passions into a white-knuckle ride of emotions. Stripped down from 25 to just 10 characters, this production promises us a sharp-suited power-broking Lady Capulet, charismatic Friar, and an edgy intelligent young generation of today.| 5 Jun 02 to 22 Jun 02 | Upstairs at the Gatehouse Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
