Globe: Romeo and Juliet
Globe: Ромео и Джульетта
Dominic Dromgoole’s production brings refreshing clarity to one of Shakespeare’s most famous and best-loved tragedies, drawing out the contemporary relevance of this passionate teenage love story.
Ellie Kendrick (Game of Thrones, Upstairs Downstairs, The Diary of Anne Frank), a truly youthful Juliet, and Adetomiwa Edun (Merlin, The Hour), a boyish Romeo, head an excellent cast whose period costumes point to the timelessness of parental disapproval, adolescent temperament, rivalry and violence.
