Produktbeschreibung

A modern love story inspired by Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo is a single dad hanging on tight. Julie is fighting to follow her dream of studying at Cambridge.

Two Welsh teens raised a few streets apart - but from entirely different worlds - crash into first love and are knocked off their feet. But at the crossroads to the rest of their lives, Julie's family fears the worst in a world of unequal opportunity.

Following their critically acclaimed productions Iphigenia in Splott and Killology, director Rachel O'Riordan reunites with Gary Owen to deliver his new play. This edition is published to coincide with the premiere at the Dorfman, Royal National Theatre, London, in February 2023.
