Description Inspired by Federico Garcia Lorca's surrealist play, The Public...A production of Romeo and Juliet, with Romeo played by a 35-year-old man and Juliet played by a 15 year-old boy.

Performance Space programme: "Salacious ... pillaging the best and pillorying the worst of the 20th century to combine the anarchic wit of the Dadists, the visual eloquence of B&W movie musicals, the trite and the true of TV/Pop culture, with a sampling of vapid post-modern mores - in crimplene flares!"
