The Spy In The Stalls
The UK premiere of Starcrossed played at Wilton's Music Hall for a successful run, beginning 25 June, 2022.
Starcrossed is Rachel Garnet's retelling of Shakespeare's classic love story Romeo and Juliet - a fresh new take on the story of the star-crossed lovers... Tybalt and Mercutio. The production was directed by Philip Wilson (Offie Finalist - Best Director of a Play).
The critically acclaimed cast (Offie nominated for Best Ensemble) included Connor Delves as Mercutio, Tommy Sim’aan as Tybalt (Stage Debut Award Nominee) and Gethin Alderman
as The Player.
What if Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet had told a different story?
Mercutio and Tybalt. Sworn enemies and…fated lovers.
In this fresh twist on the world’s most iconic love story, Starcrossed unveils the intrigue and passion of a forbidden romance forged in strife, stifled by circumstance and silenced by history.
Reimagining Shakespeare’s verse for the modern age, Rachel Garnet’s tender, witty and heart-wrenching new play gives beloved characters new life, and received critical acclaim, both as its premiere at the New York International Festival and during its London premiere in 2022.
Starcrossed is produced by Jacob Schott & Visceral Entertainment,
in association with Ticking Clock Theatre.
