GIBRALTAR

JOHN MACKINTOSH HALL 16 - 19 June at 10.30am & 6.00pm.

S4K are pleased to announce performance dates for the visit of S4K's Romeo and Juliet - The Musical to Gibraltar this spring.

There will be eight performances of the show at the John Mackintosh Hall in Main Street from Tuesday 16 - Friday 19 June at 10.30am and also at 8.00pm.

The visit has been arranged by Cynthia Eagle, the Director of Culture, on behalf of the Gibraltar government and follows S4K’s visit last year with The Tempest.

The Gibraltar government sponsorship mean 3000 pupils aged five and upwards will be given free tickets and a programme for the show.

And due to public demand there will be a limited number of tickets on sale to the public, as last year so many people expressed a desire to see the show, explained promoter Ros Astengo.

“Gibraltar follows the UK school curriculum so therefore Shakespeare is a vital part of their English studies,” she added. “We are very excited about S4K coming out again.”  “Visiting Gibraltar is an excellent strategic move for us," says S4K's Julian Chenery, "a stepping stone towards reaching out to every English-speaking country in the world with our versions of works by the world’s greatest playwright.”
