Matthew Bourne’s Romeo and Juliet

Author(s): Matthew Bourne Company: New Adventures and Sadler’s Wells

Matthew Bourne’s Romeo and Juliet gives Shakespeare’s timeless story of forbidden love an injection of raw passion and youthful vitality.

Confined against their will by a society that seeks to divide, our two young lovers must follow their hearts as they risk everything to be together.

A retelling of an ageless tale of teenage discovery and the obsession of first love.
