Romeo & Juliet

This frenetic 60 minutes of fourth-wall-breaking, ludicrous action features clowning, slapstick, and mischievous storytelling, ensuring everyone from 5 to 105 knows what’s going on!

The Rubbish Shakespeare Company takes liberties with the language, splicing the classic text with one-liners and physical comedy that could make a stuntman blush. This isn’t boring Shakespeare – it’s bonkers!

Described as “pure rubbish and you’ll love every minute” ★★★★★ (Wee Review), this is “high-class entertainment” ★★★★★ (Fringe Review) and “side-splittingly funny” ★★★★ (The List). It’s a “genius way to bring the Bard to fresh audiences” ★★★★★ (West End Best Friend).
