Expatriate's new adaptation of Shakespeare's classic travels the story backwards, then looks at the power of one choice remade.
Continuing our efforts to bring you live theatre in the midst of the global pandemic, we now present a brand new adaptation of one of Shakespeare's most famous works, one which offers its title characters one last chance.
Why this play now? In the midst of challenging times, it can feel like chaos is inevitable. But what if one choice could change the trajectory of the future? What if one spark could pierce the darkness?
Performed by professional actors, Romeo & Juliet in Reverse moves backwards through Shakespeare's tragic tale, letting us view it from new angles, then revisits the tomb to see if love and life can prevail over death.
