About Romeo and Juliet

A Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh, ETT, Leeds Playhouse and Nottingham Playhouse co-production

Then I defy you, stars! 

This is the lovesick tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. A pair of teenagers fall madly in love while their families violently tear each other apart. An explosive, urgent tale of forbidden love, secrets, loyalty and grief, where one wrong decision can change everything. What do you do when your fate is already sealed, but you’re falling in love for the very first time? A love that refuses to stay in the past, enduring, unending and unbroken. 

These violent delights have violent ends.
