ROMEO & JULIET by William Shakespeare

“Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight! For I ne’er saw true beauty till this night”
–Act 1, scene 5

When Romeo crashes a party and sees Juliet across the room, everything else disappears. One glance. One touch. And suddenly, nothing matters more than holding on to that feeling. This fall, experience the full force of Shakespeare’s most iconic love story—urgent, tender, and impossible to ignore. Set in the charged, electric world of the early 2000s, Romeo and Juliet unfolds in the shared light of the Blackfriars Playhouse, where every heartbeat, every vow, and every moment is right there, close enough to feel.
