Two households. Five days. A whirlwind romance.

These violent delights have violent ends

And in their triumph die - like fire and powder

Which, as they kiss, consume.

In the heat of Verona's streets, two young people will risk everything to be together.

This hot-blooded, deeply moving new production of the world's greatest love story is an explosive collision of youth with age, sex with death and love with tragedy. 

Young love. Accidents will happen.

Headlong Theatre's recent touring productions include Earthquakes in London, ENRON and 6 Characters in Search of an Author, which were directed by Headlong’s Artistic Director and associate director of the Royal Shakespeare Company, Rupert Goold.
