The award-winning outdoor theatre company ‘Illyria’ is set to visit us with an exciting production of Romeo and Juliet this summer.

The Montagues and the Capulets are at war. Their feud has been long and bitter. But when Romeo, Montague’s son, gatecrashes Capulet’s party in disguise, everything changes. There he meets Juliet, Capulet’s daughter, and the pair fall into an intense, forbidden love that sets in motion a chain of events leading to a devastating conclusion.

From a secret rendezvous to a fateful duel, Shakespeare masterfully explores the enduring  power of love, revenge and fate. But the surprising  thing about this iconic tale is that it’s extremely funny too! A passionate, poetic and utterly gripping performance by Illyria in the great outdoors.

The show takes place, whatever the weather, on Sunday 11th August

For over thirty years, Illyria have had a simple mission: to create outstandingly enjoyable outdoor theatre and make it available for everyone. They have performed for more than a million people and, this year, will perform The Adventures of Doctor Dolittle, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Gondoliers, and Romeo & Juliet at open-air venues, including here at Cockington Court.

Bring your own seating/rug and a picnic, sit back and enjoy the performance.
