Reading Rep Theatre, Kings Road, Reading, Berkshire, RG1 4LY
Shakespeare's R&J

About

In a rigid boarding school, four repressed adolescents unearth a secret copy of Shakespeare’s tale of forbidden love…

What begins as a rebellious laugh soon turns into something more violent. Thrust into the reality of The Bard’s words, parallels between their lives and Shakespeare’s doomed lovers begin to reveal themselves.

“Prepare for a bracing and brilliant shock to the system…an inspired new theatrical take on this early masterpiece” Paul Taylor, The Independent
