William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet

A live screening of Baz Luhrmann's 1996 film William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, with its score performed in concert at Eventim Apollo in London.

This is a film-in-concert presentation of William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, in which the film is shown on screen while its music is performed live. The programme is built around the score of Baz Luhrmann's 1996 adaptation, which sets Shakespeare's tragedy in a contemporary city and places the play's lovers in a world of modern imagery and pop-influenced music.

The evening is presented under the name William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet Film in Concert. Juliet Richardson, an American singer born in 1980 in Philadelphia and raised in New Jersey, is credited among the artists listed for this event. She has been active since 2009 and is associated with J-pop.

Eventim Apollo is a concert venue at 45 Queen Caroline Street in Hammersmith, west London. The event suits those who know the film and want to hear its music in a live setting, as well as audiences interested in screenings with orchestral or live performance.
