Romeo and Juliet Trip Wednesday 29th October

Seventy members of the Fourth and Fifth Forms set off on Wednesday evening armed with a docket supper and a ticket to see the much coveted RSC's touring production of Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare's lovelorn tragedy. In all it was an interesting performance, set as it was in Mafia-run Verona. It was jazzed up with a fantastic band and the scene changes offered the simple set depth and intrigue although the "two hours traffic of our stage" was uncomfortably extended to three! However, it is always a great opportunity to see our studied GCSE plays brought to life on stage and particularly when presented by the RSC. Many thanks to the staff who helped to oversee this dramatic evening. Mr Forshaw's class, I hear, have leapt on wildly in their coursework, so all's well that ends well.
