Baked Shakespeare at The Outlore Base: Romeo and Juliet

South Africa's cult-classic production company, Baked Shakespeare, is in its 6th season! Join us for our chaotic take on the world's most famous love story: Romeo and Juliet.

Two star-crossed lovers from conflicting families fall into a reckless, all-consuming love and defy everyone to be together (think 2010s playlists full of Taylor Swift). Then, there are duels, banishment, and cruel twists of fate that spiral everything out of control!

Not really a tragedy (although it's very tragic), not really a comedy (although it's very funny), this is the most famous ROMANCE ever written. Move over Twilight, Romeo and Juliet are in the house!

“The perfect way to reintroduce Shakespeare’s work as fun and light-hearted to the youth.” - The Stellenbosch

Baked Shakespeare’s trippy take on Romeo and Juliet delivers electric chemistry, playful audience interaction, outrageous musical moments, and, of course … explosive sword fights, iconic moments, and a balcony that we can definitely afford to build!

Join our award-winning cast at The Outlore Base for a psychedelic evening of classical performance with a twist, and some of the grooviest 420 vibrations imaginable. See for yourself why South Africa LOVES Baked Shakespeare.
