Romeo and Juliet
Two feuding families. Forbidden love between their teenage offspring. Romeo and Juliet is one of Shakespeare’s greatest and most popular plays, with all the elements of a blockbuster. Duels. Untimely deaths. Low comedy. High drama. Bumbling nurses. Fumbling priests. Potions that work too well. Poisons that work even better. All fuelled by the mad, intoxicating fury of teenage lovers, whose passion inflamed a city and enthralled audiences for more than 500 years. Why such undying appeal? Ask any teenager. Or better still, their parents.
