A production by The 7 Fingers

The triumphant return of the company that brought Globe audiences the smash hit Passengers. Romeo and Juliet comes to life through circus in this one-of-a-kind adaptation of Shakespeare, a one-act romp perfect for the whole family. The 7 Fingers reimagines the feud between the Capulets and Montagues as a battle of acrobatics, each competition more daring than the last. While the two teams face off, cheered on by their side of the audience, a pair of star-crossed lovers struggles to escape the showdown. The exhilaration and danger of competition provide the thrilling backdrop to this one-of-a-kind daredevil theatrical extravaganza.
Originally produced and created in collaboration with Virgin Voyages. Tour made possible thanks to the touring assistance program of the Quebec Council for the Arts and Letters.
