About
Join Illyria for a passionate, poetic, and gripping outdoor production of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet at Pontefract Castle.
The Montagues and the Capulets are at war with one another – but when Montague’s son gate crashes Capulet’s party in disguise and falls in love with Capulet’s daughter, a chain-reaction of events is set in motion which has a devastating conclusion.
