Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare 

 

Join us for our Spring Production 2011 ...

 

Dramaworks’ spring productions are becoming legendary in and beyond the Academy for their vision and vitality. Burying your Brother in 2008 went on to the Olivier Theatre at the National in London, while Fugee in 2009 went on to be performed at the Scottish Parliament.  In 2010, Davey Anderson's Blackout blew us away with the power and passion of the message and the ensemble performance.
 
This year the Dramaworks spring production will be  Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare which will run from 24 - 26 March 2011 in the Academy’s Chandler Theatre.  It will be directed by Marcus Roche.
 
This production will use technology and social networking to explore communications and relationships within the most famous of Shakespeare’s plays.

The challenging production Blackout played to packed audiences in spring 2010 and was well received by the audience who commented:
 
'Fantastic! The cast worked so well together – it was hard-hitting, thought-provoking and yet up-lifting.'
 
'I thought the piece was very brave and directed superbly.'
 
'Very, very good - they worked well as a team. I thoroughly enjoyed this powerful performance.'
