Britain's What's On Event Guide
Romeo & Juliet
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep”
This summer one of the greatest of all love stories will explode onto the streets of Guildford.
For three weeks we’re closing the High Street every evening to bring to life the passion and excitement of Shakespeare’s impulsive star-crossed lovers. In a society fuelled by greed and entitlement, can their fragile vision of a better world survive their families’ ruthless feud?
Featuring, amongst others, the iconic Guildhall balcony, historic Abbot’s Hospital and stylish Tunsgate Quarter audiences will follow the action as the story unfolds, ending in the stunning Castle Gardens. GSC’s professional cast will also be joined by a Community Ensemble of adults and young people.
Join us for a truly unique telling of Shakespeare’s heartbreaking tale, as we continue our 18th birthday year.
