Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet

July 2019

in Guildford Castle Gardens

Directed by Jennifer Haynes

ABOUT THE SHOW

Shakespeare’s timeless love story set in a city torn apart by feuds and in the month after which the heroine is named – a July where ‘these hot days, is the mad blood stirring’. The Pranksters move the time to the early 1960s. Think La Dolce Vita, pavement cafes, Italian pop music playing on the juke box, ice creams and a shadowy mafia.

Following last summer’s successful The Taming of the Shrew, staged inside the Castle Keep, The Pranksters return to the Castle Gardens, where you can bring a picnic to enjoy whilst watching the show.
