synopsis: Don't be sheepish, flock down to this new show for children by an award-winning company This new musical is an adaption of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, written by Lesley Ross. Rameo and Eweliet tells the story of two sheep who fall in love with each other. This comical musical, aimed at ages from 5 to 95, contains Shakespeare's verse as well as songs from the 'Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture'by Tchaikovsky, giving the audience a real potpourri of Romeo and Juliet that is entertaining for all. Lesley Ross has been producing plays for Venue 13 and the Edinburgh Festival for the last 13 years. His productions have won countless awards at the Fringe, including 'The Jolly Folly of Polly the Scottish Trolley Dolly' (Guardian Best of the Fringe), 'The Second Coming' (Pick of the Fringe) and 'Tom and the Magical Flower' (Best Kids Show). Ross has previously adapted Shakespeare for the Royal National Theatre and his '40 Minute Tempest' (revived as 'The Little Tempest') has toured throughout Britain. The music is written by David Last, whose work has taken him all over Europe. He is also the lead choirboy for the BBC Male Choir. The Co-Director Emily Williams is currently working with the Trestle Theatre Company and will also be part of their team at this year's Fringe. |
