Experience National Theatre’s critically-acclaimed film version of Romeo & Juliet at the Quick! This modern interpretation, directed by Simon Godwin, 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.Described by The New York Times as “…an emotionally satisfying and highly theatrical filmed version [that] scores point after point,” the production features Jessie Buckley (I’m Thinking of Ending Things) and Josh O’Connor (The Crown). The award-winning cast also includes Tamsin Greig, Fisayo Akinade, Adrian Lester, Lucian Msamati, and Deborah Findlay.
“ Poised and adventurous, this Romeo & Juliet is a hybrid wonder and full of intelligent invention”
— The Guardian
