BWW Review: ROMEO AND JULIET, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre

“Two households, both alike in dignity”, and so begins arguably Shakespeare’s most popular tragedy. In 424 years since its premiere it’s safe to say not all productions have been alike in status - unlike the famous Capulet and Montague houses of Verona.

It’s a political tragedy that features immature teenage infatuation.
