ROMEO AND JULIET | BRISTOL OLD VIC
BRISTOL OLD VIC YOUNG COMPANY AND YOUNG SIXSIX PRODUCTION 2022
WRITTEN BY William Shakespeare | DEVISED BY The Company
‘Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.’
Verona. Right here.
Two households. Your neighbours.
A pair of star-crossed lovers. Your friends.
They enter. You watch them. We know how this ends.
This is a race, no one can win. They will spend the whole play running from their fate.
It will not work. They have to die. This is a tragedy.
Bristol Old Vic Young Company and Young SixSix presents Romeo and Juliet. Directed by Julia Head, this bold production will be a relentless unfolding of the world’s most famous love story, set against the violent chaos of this broken world.
