In ‘Once in Verona’, you'll witness the whole story come to life in a modern verse enactment. Two actors take on all the characters, from the star-crossed lovers to the bumbling sidekicks, and perform all the infamous scenes and silly blunders. And get this - they do it all in just fifty minutes! It's a rollercoaster ride of emotions that will have you laughing, crying, and cheering for more.

‘The Suicide Trap’ looks at Romeo and Juliet from the other side of the grave. After four hundred plus years of self-destruction, Romeo and Juliet decide to save themselves from their inevitable end. The only problem is, they can’t change events and circumstances as Shakespeare wrote them. They can only change themselves. Inspired by Beyond Blue’s Suicide Safety Plan – ‘The Suicide Trap’ tries to throw a lifeline to the world’s most tragic lovers.

Don't miss your chance to experience this heart-pumping, action-packed double bill of Romeo and Juliet like you've never seen before!
