BRISBANE FESTIVAL 2011 PRESENTS QUT FESTIVAL THEATRE

Romeo and Juliet

Tue 20 - Sat 24 Sep 2011

BELL SHAKESPEARE

Boy + Girl = Boy – Girl

As purveyors of William Shakespeare’s astonishing legacy, Bell Shakespeare will showcase the revered playwright’s timeless tragedy, Romeo and Juliet at Brisbane Festival.

Lovesick teenagers. Strict parents. Rebellion. No wonder modern kids connect so well with Shakespeare’s tragic teens. Romeo falls for Juliet. Juliet swoons for Romeo. The young ‘star-cross’d lovers’ are torn apart by an old family feud. It’s a classic boy meets girl, boy loses girl love story.

“Romeo and Juliet is a blast for teenagers and adults alike… Entertaining, loud energetic and colourful.” The Sun Herald
