2024 Season - ROMEO + JULIET
Back for the third year running, Shakespearience Australia and Dungog Shakespearience are excited to bring one of the most famous love stories of all time - Romeo and Juliet - to the enchanting forest stages of Wangat Lodge! After the sell out success of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in 2022 and As You Like It in 2023, director Timothy Weston has turned his imagination to Shakespeare’s classic tale of family feud and true love. No doubt it will be an unmissable experience!
R&J The Plot - Shakespeare's classic story of warring families and doomed love all wrapped up with exciting swordfights and larger-than-life characters. The timeless tale of true love is set against the background of an endless fued between the noble houses of Montague and Capulet; where one fatal night the dashing Romeo meets the beautiful Juliet and a plot is hatched to end the war between their families by uniting the two in a secret marriage to bring allaiance to the houses. These best laid plans must contend with the vaguries of fortune, the will of Juliet's princely suitor, the honour of the blade, and the rage of the firey Tybalt. In spite of their families, Romeo and Juliet strive to be together, and live for the idea that love can conquer hate.
Dungog Shakespearience performances are an immersive experience set amongst the trees of 3 forest stages at Wangat Lodge. Join us for 2024! We have 4 shows and Show/dinner/accommodation packages available! Check it out! -
