Romeo And Juliet, Herstmonceux Castle, Hailsham, July 21-23
2:40pm Friday 18th July 2008
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is going out on the road this summer with one of the Bard's best-loved plays.
Romeo and Juliet will reach Herstmonceux Castle on Monday, where the tale of the star-crossed lovers will be performed in the grounds of the Hailsham venue.
A small company will stage the play in a relatively stripped-back production that aims to get back to the intimate, pared down principles of traditional touring theatre. Dominic Dromgoole, Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe, says: "The Globe was born out of a touring company culture, and that culture remained vital to it while it flourished.
"We are delighted to be exploring again the tradition of taking Shakespeare into non-theatrical spaces."
- Starts at 7pm nightly. Tickets cost £15 (£10 concessions). Call 0207 836 3864.
