About the show

A humorous and heartfelt duet about love, loss and longevity.

With Lost Dog’s unique blend of dance, theatre and comedy this duet reveals the real story of Romeo and Juliet. It turns out they didn’t die in a tragic misunderstanding, they grew up and lived happily ever after. Well, they lived at least. 

Now they’re in their 40s, at least one of them is in the grips of a mid-life crisis, and they feel constantly mocked by their teenage selves and haunted by the pressures of being the poster couple for romantic love. 

To confront their current struggles, they have decided to put on a performance — about themselves. Their therapist told them it was a terrible idea.

Directed by Olivier Award-nominated Ben Duke, Juliet & Romeo takes on our cultural obsession with youth and our inevitable issues with longevity.
