Let Barker's Year 11 students wistfully weave you into Shakespeare's realm with this fun and often comedic love story, that twists with the facts, life and love of Shakespeare himself. Penniless and indebted to two demanding producers, struggling young playwright Will Shakespeare is tormented by writer’s block until he meets his muse - the beautiful Viola, daughter of a wealthy merchant, whose fiery passion for poetry, leaves her secretly longing to be an actor. Both are despondent when they learn that Viola’s father has promised her to the stuffy Lord Wessex. Under the veil of secrecy, Will and Viola’s passionate love affair becomes the basis of the very play he is writing – Romeo and Juliet. With opening night, and the wedding day approaching, the plots race toward a parallel conclusion. Are the two star-crossed lovers destined for tragedy or against the odds will true love prevail? Don't miss this chance at a lighthearted imagining of the genesis of Shakespeare's play Romeo & Juliet RHODES THEATRE, RE KEFFORD BUILDING
