'Explain it to me then' Callum Scott Howells and Rosie Sheehy in Romeo & Julie | National Theatre

A co-production with Sherman Theatre.
--
Romeo is a single dad hanging on tight. Julie is fighting to follow her dream of studying at Cambridge.

Two Welsh teens raised a few streets apart – but from entirely different worlds – crash into first love and are knocked off their feet. But at the crossroads to the rest of their lives, Julie’s family fears the worst in a world of unequal opportunity.

Following their critically acclaimed productions Iphigenia in Splott and Killology, director Rachel O’Riordan reunites with Gary Owen to deliver his new play.

I saw Rosie as Puck in Stratford last week. Fantastic. Put me in mind of a young Judy Dench. Instant electricity. This woman will go far.

I was immersed from the start, beautiful acting. Actually makes me want to go to the theatre again, thank you :)

I saw this as an ad and I had to come here to see if there was a full version. Very entertaining, almost made me interested in Physics😂

Saw this yesterday, on St David's Day no less. Fantastic. More of these 'Plays for Today'.

This might trigger some youngsters to do physics when they are forcedly dragged to the theater by school. If they don't like art, then maybe at least they'll like science. Thumbs up

Well done - I've booked tickets off the back of this! See you in a couple of weeks :o)
