New versions of Romeo and Juliet, and The Importance of Being Earnest, are coming to Ventnor Park. THREE actors cooped up together in lockdown have created an unhinged and bonkers version of Shakespeare s Romeo and Juliet. The play will be performed in the open air setting of Ventnor Park on May 29 and 30. More than a year since the curtain came down on performances at Ventnor Exchange, with the start of the first national lock down, the team is excited to be preparing for the return of its live programme. It begins with the laugh-out-loud version of Romeo and Juliet, created by The Handlebards, a company who cycle the length and breadth of the country to reach all their touring destinations on two wheels.
