Set in the turbulent heart of the French Revolution, the timeless tale of Romeo and Juliet details the fate of two ‘star-crossed lovers’, whose dizzying romantic entanglement ends in tragedy.

Durham University Classical Theatre are proud to present our annual Shakespeare production, Romeo and Juliet. In this fresh take on the Shakespearean classic, the story unfolds amid the turmoil of the French Revolution.

Juliet is the daughter of an aristocratic family loyal to the monarchy, while Romeo is a passionate revolutionary fighting for liberty and equality. Their love blossoms in secret against the violent backdrop of political upheaval and shifting alliances. As tensions rise, Romeo and Juliet's entanglement reaches boiling point, in an ending testament to the unbridled power of true love.
