Give me my Romeo; and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine...

Shakespeare’s most powerful story of tragic love is presented in a Verona unlike any ever seen; one filled with music, magic and passion. Here old feuds are given new life, as an array of beautiful puppets combine with an ensemble of performers to retell Shakespeare’s story of passion, beauty, lust and pride.

Focusing heavily on creative theatre making, imagination and vivid theatrical storytelling, Night Light set out to inspire, excite and entertain in this unique interpretation of Romeo and Juliet, performed in just 75 minutes.
