“Everything Shakespeare should be. Relevant for today and entertaining” The Guardian
Romeo & Juliet
A family feud divides the community!
Violence stalks the streets.
Who can see beyond the hate and dare to follow their heart?
A pair of star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet!
Oddsocks return with their new take on this well-loved classic,
finding laughs and pathos in the most dramatic of tragedies.
Will Romeo pull himself together to escape with Juliet?
Will the Nurse think of a better plan than the Friar?
Will the audience help the lovers elope?
All will be revealed as Oddsocks create uplifting comedy
from the depths of despair
in a show that’s the perfect antidote to prejudice.
Reviews of past Oddsocks productions:
“Without doubt the performance was among the best productions that I have seen”
Jersey Evening Post
“A thoroughly enjoyable night out. Once again, they’ve succeeded in making Shakespeare accessible.”
“Many times the beauty and cadence of the bard’s lines ring out even amidst the comedic clamour.”
“a magical combination of farce, physical theatre, silly sight gags, puppetry and, yes, the bard’s immortal prose.”
