“A genuinely unforgettable night on the tiles”
The Guardian“@HOME_mcr beautiful, atmospheric, moving performance last night. What a brilliant space for an epic story #RomeoAndJuliet”
@brads_alex on Twitter“The vigour and ambition of [Walter] Meierjohann’s vision carry us along with pace, humour and moments of aching sensitivity… It concludes with one of the most breath-taking scenes you are ever likely to see in a theatre”
The Independent“@HOME_mcr #RomeoAndJuliet is a visual feast. Fantastic use of space in the beautiful eerily romantic #VictoriaBaths”
@emilyjeanadams on Twitter“…drenched in atmosphere and…very beautiful. Entering the final room to gaze into Juliet’s flooded mausoleum is a catch-your-breath moment”
Manchester Evening News“Even more in awe of last nights @HOME_mcr #romeoandjuliet @victoriabaths. Utterly jawdropping at points. A must see for Mcr people.”
@cj_oneill on Twitter“Spectacular… As I perched on the edge of my cushion, looking down, my feet dangling over the edge of the empty pool, I realised that I was watching a breathtakingly beautiful piece of theatre. And I would like to think that Shakespeare would have given this production his seal of approval too”
What’s On Stage“Sexy, heartbreaking, flawlessly staged #RomeoAndJuliet @victoriabaths @HOME_mcr”
