Dulwich Players present Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

Directed by Yohann Philip

'Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene, from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean...'

London is the setting for our contemporary and immersive adaptation of Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy, as two rival takeaway businesses battle for culinary supremacy across the city. While the batter sizzles and hot-headed brawls break out, the young lovers defy their families to follow their passion … with bitter consequences.

There is plenty of fun and humour on the menu too. Music, dance and immersive theatre, delivered with relish by our brilliant cast, bring out the lighter side of Shakespeare’s drama and make the audience integral to the action.

So, join us and be immersed in the high-stakes, high-calorie world of the Montagues and Capulets – it’s a feast you won’t want to miss!
