Romeo and Juliet at Fellowship Square

Performances at 7:30pm Wednesday to Saturday and 3pm on Saturday and Sunday.

This riotous and atmospheric outdoor production will bring the story of Shakespeare’s most famous star-crossed lovers to life at Fellowship Square this July. It will be the Romeo and Juliet you know but set in modern East London.

Featuring live music and showstopper numbers to music from Lizzo, Dizzee Rascal, Gloria Estefan, Shirley Bassey and Clean Bandit. This is a family friendly production and there will be opportunities for audience participation. Everyone is welcome to bring their own picnic and soak up the atmosphere at Fellowship Square before the show.

Produced by the East London Shakespeare Festival who combine the storytelling of the Bard with a flavour of East London culture and contemporary twists and turns. Please be aware that they operate an all-weather policy so the show will go on even if it rains.

Headband Workshops

For younger members of the audience aged 3 and older, there is the opportunity to take part in a pre-show flower-fairy headband making workshops run by cast members. There will be a small additional charge to show tickets so please add a separate workshop ticket when booking.

Seating

There will be limited seating available and will be reserved for those that require them or on a first come first served basis. Please email the East London Shakespeare Festival at info@elsf.uk if you will need a chair and they will reserve one for you while still available.

You are welcome to bring you own seating such as picnic blankets to sit on the grass or camping chairs.
