About the Show

A banned text

A secret enactment

A fateful discovery

After the success of Alfie, Imperial Productions return to Barons Court with this highly original look at a classic, using an abridged version of Shakespeare’s text in a production influenced by Dead Poets Society.

This version of Romeo And Juliet is set in a Girl's School where the headmistress has banned all works by dead white males - which includes William Shakespeare. A group of schoolgirls plan to stage a secret production of the play, rehearsing in the school's cellars at midnight. All is going well until Matron comes down into the cellar to investigate ...

Expected to be Barons Court's "Hit Of The Year". Early booking recommended.
