The smash-hit, internationally acclaimed, award-winning, multi-sell-out phenomenon is back. Our cast will present an unconventional, no-holds-barred interpretation of 'Romeo and Juliet', with a tipsily tragic take on William Shakespeare's most iconic roll call of characters: from a rat-arsed Romeo to a juiced-up Juliet, a trollied Tybalt or a mashed-up Mercutios, along with enough booze to sterilise a brewery floor. This will be a tragedy like no other—the cup overfloweth.
