About

Communication breakdown affects us all. Our production of Romeo and Juliet is a modern re imagining of Shakespeare's original classic play, drawing out the elements of failed personal and family connections, prejudice and devasting misunderstandings. With the introduction of elements such as AI, modern communication technology seems to affecting the way we interact with each other: relationships become less personal and are out of our control.

The production will be highly physical, with the ensemble creating the world of the play rather than relying heavily on set pieces, and will encompass a grungy modern setting, in a world very similar to our own.
