National Theatre Live - Romeo & Juliet at STC's Klein Theatre

by William Shakespeare Directed by Simon Godwin Romeo and Juliet risk everything to be together. In defiance of their feuding families, they chase a future of joy and passion as violence erupts around them. This bold new film brings to life the remarkable backstage spaces of the National Theatre in which desire, dreams, and destiny collide to make Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy sing in an entirely new way. Jessie Buckley (Wild Rose, Judy) and Josh O’Connor (The Crown, God’s Own Country) play Juliet and Romeo. The award-winning cast includes Tamsin Greig, Fisayo Akinade, Adrian Lester, Lucian Msamati, and Deborah Findlay. Runtime: 1 hour and 40 minutes Rating: 12A, Treat as PG-13 Photo credit: Jessie Buckley, Lucian Msamati and Josh O'Connor in Romeo & Juliet at the National Theatre. Photo by Rob Youngson.
