Shakespeare x 5

Multiple dates and times The Glitch, SE1 7AE

Caught completely unprepared, two clowns grab the only story everyone knows: Romeo and Juliet.

What follows is five wildly inventive attempts to perform Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy through slapstick chaos, explosive physical comedy and reckless imagination. The audience doesn’t just watch — it gets pulled straight into the disaster.

Fast, funny and dangerously unpredictable, Shakespeare x 5 balances on the edge between clowning and catastrophe. Every failure becomes more absurd, more ambitious and unexpectedly more human.

But just as the laughter reaches its peak, the game suddenly breaks open, revealing something raw, vulnerable and deeply moving beneath the chaos.

Fearless, hilarious and unlike anything else on stage, Shakespeare x 5 leaves audiences breathless long after the final bow." "PRODUCER: Hand Theatre Bulgaria
