Romeo and Juliet
‘The opening is stunningly constructed by director Alby James: the frantic activity on stage has an immediate impact on the audience…. As the well-known story unfolds, we are treated to some very special theatre. The execution of the performances and the vitality of the production are a joy to watch.’ What’s On 6–13 July 1988
‘Alby James’ hot-blooded, sensual and often bawdy production of Shakespeare’s famous romantic tragedy is strong on atmosphere – with steamy dancing to Latin rhythms, calypso and even ‘La Traviata’; rumbustious street scenes and impressive sword fights (Terry King) all underscored by John Zaradin’s music.’ Time Out, 6 July 1988
