Description
A gritty reimagining of Shakespeare's famous tragedy, this brand new modern-day audiobook adaptation of William Shakespeare's classic love story is full of passion, emotion, scandal, disillusionment and family fallout.
An amateur dramatics company in a suburban corner of nowhere. Two men with very different lives, brought together when cast in the roles of Romeo and Juliet - 'as Shakespeare would have it', in the words of their eccentric and enigmatic director. Though the elicit romance doesn’t only play out on the stage.
Against the odds, our heroes struggle to keep hold of each other and to keep a handle on real life. As the pressures, threats and expectations of their worlds draw in, per Shakespeare's original, the pithy banter from the first few scenes evaporates away to reveal a very real and present danger... and even tragedy.
Starring Owen Teale (Game of Thrones), Matthew Tennyson (Pride), Nick Moran (Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels) and Ricky Norwood (EastEnders), Romeo and Jude contains strong language and adult themes.

Ce que les critiques en disent
"Wonderful performances pepper this intriguing contemporary twist on Romeo and Juliet.... The full-cast delivers Shakespeare's words and emotions as convincingly as they deliver their off-stage personae.... In the smaller, more intimate, scenes, both plot and characters come alive." (AudioFile)
Reviews from Audible members:
"Brilliant - but not how you'd expect it! This isn't quite how I expected it - a retelling of Romeo and Juliet, with Jude instead of Juliet. It's better. In it, a theatrical group put on a performance of Romeo and Juliet, but due to a lack of good actresses, 'Jude' must play Juliet. I've been captivated by it, and have listened to it three times. I really would recommend it." - Alex
"Outstanding!!! I thought I could listen to this over a few days. Day 1 and I was on episode 11. Truly gripping, brilliantly acted. Amazing. Can't praise enough." - Jordan Campbell
"Brilliant!!! Loved this story so much... gripped from start to finish. Funny, witty scary & charming." - R Wardle
"Wow. Honestly was not expecting this to be as good as it was. Couldn't stop listening, and finished it all in one day. Just when you think the story can't escalate any further, it takes you along another twist. Great performances from everyone involved." - Anastasia
"Sad it had to end. Story was so gripping I missed my bus stop. Owen Teale's voice is gorgeous." - Victoria H
“Yes, well I didn't believe the reviews. I must have close to 300 audiobooks from Audible and most are well produced, the stories are between quite good and very good. This is the funniest, most interesting book and production I have from Audible." - Caz in Maspalomas
"One of the best! Absolutely loved this version of Romeo and Juliet, I felt I was watching and living it whilst I listened. In fact got frustrated by those around me when I had to pause and attend to meals, work children etc. Highly recommended." - Kenzo
"Shakespeare himself would cry listening to this. The most incredible listen for ages. At times I couldn't tell when it was Shakespeare's original work and when it was the modern fiction. The performances, of which there are many and on so many different levels, are amazing and draw you in to it." - Mark
"Just brilliant... What can I say about this amazing piece of audio art? The performances are spectacular, utterly involving, believable and heart-wrenching. It's written with beauty and insight, a perfect update to a classic play. The themes of identity and acceptance are handled with intelligence. It's the best thing I have listened to from Audible" - Louise Gardener
