Romeo and Juliet

William Shakespeare

12 – 31 August 2024
Bath Abbey, Bath

In the scorching heat of summer, the streets of Verona simmer with tension. Two rival families are fighting an undeclared war.

With emotions running high, Verona is a powder keg of barely suppressed violence. And when love strikes the houses of Montague and Capulet, it sparks a chain of events that will blow the city apart.

This summer, experience the world’s greatest love story like never before ...

Step into majestic Bath Abbey and let the passion, drama and magic of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece Romeo and Juliet unfold around you in Antic Disposition’s brand new promenade production.

As night falls, join us on a journey around the hidden corners of this awe-inspiring building, witnessing the star-crossed lovers' story in an unforgettable theatrical experience.

Romeo and Juliet is directed by Peter Brook Award-winning Ben Horslen and John Risebero for Antic Disposition.
