Capulets outnumbering MontaguesIn the manner of the school playground as the audience arrives at Romeo or Juliet they are asked to pick sides and wear the appropriate tie, red for Capulet (Juliet) and blue for Montague (Romeo).  Sunday in the Barns by sheer weight of numbers the Capulets would have easily won a punch up.

Romeo and Juliet at the Wingfield BarnsWe first saw the Keeper's Daughter's Romeo and Juliet crikey seven years ago at Hartismere School Eye.  Like Dr Who it keeps regenerating and yesterday's afternoon show at the Barns had a confident young cast who often played with the expectation of what a play should be, we particularly liked the audience joining in with the dancing.  No doubt R&J will regenerate somewhere near you soonish ... on our way home the Stradbroke Spar had shelves that need to be filled.
