Viewing Matthew Bourne’s Romeo and Juliet

Inmates, just mates and lovers. Find your row and fasten your seatbelt because Mathew Bourne’s Romeo and Juliet prepares to land at Sadler Wells. Taking to the stage this August, be mesmerised by the parley of dance with music by PROKOFIEV. Feel the intensity of forbidden love, misused power, and obsession on stage through the tragic love story of this young couple.

Based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the performance is set in an institution where the inmates are under close scrutiny and robbed of basic freedoms. Two young inmate’s eyes lock across the dance floor as they embark on their love story. Breaking the rules and confines of the institute, this well-known tragedy unveils the passion, explosion and pain of the thing called love. Touching down at Sadler Wells on the 1 August, be spun around by in this three-act performance. Tickets are selling like hotcakes, so snap them up while you still can.
