Although every cloud has a silver lining, the “opportunities” provided by the pandemic to deliver something new have largely been unsuccessful and left audiences cold and aching for “proper” theatre. Yet with her tight new digital production of
Romeo and Juliet for Creation Theatre in partnership with Watford Palace Theatre, Natasha Rickman has achieved what I was beginning to think was impossible – an experience that is genuinely theatrical and yet takes full advantage of online presentation. If you have ever wished it was possible to watch – closely – everyone on stage at the same time, you will be delighted by the way Rickman conjures her characters and the settings and incidents of the play – at times hinting that the work of Ingmar Bergman and Nicolas Roeg has been an influence, but creating something unique and really very special.
