Years of the most famous love story ever told

Hollywood stars making their West End debuts
5
Days. The entire play unfolds in just five days

In Verona, in the height of summer, two young people meet at a party. The rest is tragedy. Robert Icke — director of the Olivier Award-winning Oedipus and Player Kings — brings his signature intensity to Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy, staging it as what it truly is: a story about teenagers. Awkward, impulsive, overwhelmed, and absolutely convinced this is the most important thing that has ever happened to anyone.

“Sadie Sink is so commanding as Juliet it will make you cry — her West End debut is one of the performances of the year.”
The Telegraph

A digital clock flashes on the concrete walls, counting down the five days Romeo and Juliet have together. In pivotal moments, time resets — scenes replay with tiny, agonising variations, showing what could have been different, before fate snaps everything back to its inexorable course. It is a production preoccupied with the cruelty of coincidence, and the question of whether any of this had to happen at all.

Sadie Sink — known globally as Max in Stranger Things, Tony-nominated on Broadway for John Proctor Is the Villain — makes her West End debut as Juliet, delivering a performance described by critics as raw, clever and magnetic. Opposite her, Noah Jupe — who played Hamlet in Chloé Zhao’s Oscar-nominated Hamnet — brings boyish charm and devastating emotional intelligence to Romeo. Together, their chemistry is one of the most talked-about double acts on the West End stage this year.

The supporting cast is equally formidable: Clare Perkins (Player Kings, The Wheel of Time) as the Nurse, Clark Gregg (Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as a terrifying Capulet, John Marquez (Doc Martin) as Friar Laurence, and Kasper Hilton-Hille (Dear England) as Mercutio. Design is by Hildegard Bechtler, with lighting by Jon Clark and an electronic score by Giles Thomas.

Press Reviews

“The only thing this production needs to alert you to is that Sadie Sink is so commanding as Juliet it will make you cry.”
The Telegraph ★★★★
“For a 400-year-old text, it feels startlingly alive, fizzing with energy. Crucially, this production leans into the youth of its lovers — their love is clumsy, embarrassing and all-consuming. Painfully recognisable.”
WestEnd.com ★★★★★
“Sink and Jupe have stunning chemistry. The party scene, in which they set eyes on each other for the first time, is electric — something extraordinary is blasting through their veins.”
Time Out ★★★★
“Slick, focused and profoundly sincere. Sadie Sink and Noah Jupe take the lead with youthful flair as the troubled couple. A dreamlike, assuredly sophisticated production with a cinematic emotional pull.”
Broadway World ★★★★
