These Violent Delights Have Violent Ends
Romeo and Juliet is a play which has been performed more times than we can record, yet each director attempts to bring something new to the classic love story. In the case of the Jamie Lloyd production, the first word I uttered afterwards was 'wow'. I feel this encapsulates all.
Tea Time at the Theatre
Found in the upstairs of The Royal Theatre on Drury Lane, the restaurant is one of classical elegance with a theatre twist. Enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea whilst surrounded by paintings and the busts of familiar names such as Ivor Novello.
