Romeo and Juliet: a celebration of love, passion expressed in its most poetic form, the tragic fate of two very young lovers, caused by the antagonism of their aristocratic families, but also - in Peter Ustinov's famous words - 'a comedy that has gone wrong', crowded with tension and suspense, which has fascinated millions of readers, theatre- and cinema-goers over more than four centuries and which never fails to attract students in classrooms and universities of the twenty-first century.
