Rom eo and Juliet poster

Stars Sign Up for Icelandic Romeo

The Icelandic company Ventursport's aerial production of Romeo and Juliet has attracted huge interest from a number of theatre stars who are lining up to appear in the production, much as happens in The Play What I Wrote. A co-production with the Young Vic, it played at the Young Vic during 2003 and has now made it to the West End where it is at the Playhouse until 5th March, 2005 - and where it seems to be achieving cult status.

Stars booked to appear are:

Vanessa Redgrave – Dec. 18
Derek Jacobi – Dec. 21
Jonathan Pryce – Dec. 22
Dawn French – Jan. 4, 2005
Francesca Annis – Jan. 8
Sean Connery – date to be confirmed

with Joanna Lumley (Dec. 16) and Jenny Seagrove (Dec. 17) having already appeared.
