Shakespeare needed an update…
Romeo and Jules: A Rock Opera is an update on the classic Shakespearean tragedy with a twist: a seriously rocking twist!
Set in the long-gone days of 2005, the University of Verona is host to the fierce rivalry between the Montague fraternity, a group of snobbish nerds whose noses are far too deep in their comic books, and the Capulet fraternity, the lunkhead jocks who don’t know the difference between Oedipus and Oreos.
Only one thing links them all: Rock music.
But amidst this ongoing battle, two unlikely souls find one another. Romeo is a hopeless romantic who can’t catch a cold, and Jules is an Olympian in the making who hears the word love and thinks of tennis. A match made in Hell, right? But who knows: maybe opposites do attract.
Filled with plenty of humour, romance, drama, action, heart, and most of all, rock, this show has everything you could ever want.
Get your air guitar ready… it’ll be a night to remember…
