Shakespeare In The Park Returns in December 2003!
Passion, desire, revenge, forgiveness, hope, despair, love and death...
"A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life, Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows Doth with their death bury their parents' strife"
Two families divided by hatred; two young people, in love, at first sight. Thus the stage is set for the greatest love story of all time: a tale of secret joys and tragic mischance, culminating in a desperate plan to steal happiness from the grave itself. Love conquers all - except the destiny written in our stars.
Join us under the stars in The Botanic Garden, Kings Park for a night of passionate young love, thrilling sword fights, tragedy and laughter as Western Australia's most exciting theatre company brings you a timeless tale of endless love. Bring a picnic, bring the family or bring your lover and share in the magic of theatre, the poetry of love and the enchantment of King's Park on a balmy summer night.
