Beginners Please launches its inaugural season with a bold new take on William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet. Set on the streets of modern-day London, this timeless tale of love and rivalry unfolds in a city where the Borough of Verona’s youth are at war. Blending Shakespeare’s original text with a gritty, contemporary setting, Romeo & Juliet explores family conflict, forbidden love, and violence on the streets - themes as urgent and heartbreaking today as they were in 1597.
