Set in the 1950’s at an exclusive boarding school, four pupils run into the chapel late one night in a bid to escape from their repressive school routines and begin reading Romeo & Juliet aloud. School and social rules are shattered as the students come to understand the real price of challenging fate and the true dangers of forbidden love.

As both the stories of Romeo and Juliet and the four lads unfold during the course of one thrilling evening, audience and actors alike discover the power of theatre and the new worlds it can open up. Highly energetic, physical and packed with the energy of youth and beauty of Shakespeare language; this really is Shakespeare at his most accessible and daring.
