Review: ROMEO AND JULIET, Sadler's Wells

Leeds based Northern Ballet always pack a punch when they visit London every May, and this time was no different, with Massimo Moricone’s slick and captivating Romeo and Juliet. This year’s touring production held extra poignancy, with the costumes and set requiring full restoration and repair from a devastating warehouse flood in 2015.

Review: THE DIVINE MRS S, Hampstead Theatre
