What they say about us:

S4K ROMEO: "Thought you might be interested in the review of the performance of ‘Romeo and Juliet’ at De Montfort Hall, Leicester on 1st February, written by my 8 year old daughter: Romeo and Juliet is a fantastic romantic tragedy play which is put to life in this wonderful production especially for Kidz. With song and dance, uplifting moments and tragic events. The world of Romeo and Juliet also has a moral: ‘Don’t keep war with other people or things that will hurt you very much will happen’. This moral is showed in this wonderful play. It is also understandable for children to help them get to know the story better. There are lots of hilarious Acts and some sad, moving, romantic ones too! The actors are brilliant; they deserve a big, well done! There are some of Shakespeare’s phrases mixed in, e.g. “Parting is such sweet sorrow”, and “Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?”."
