Romeo & Juliet in JW Sweetman

This was an adaptation of Romeo & Juliet that took place entirely within the basement bar at J.W. Sweetman (now J.R. Mahon's) on Burgh Quay. Some friends of mine from Bow Street were in the cast. Scenes from the play began spontaneously throughout the location, and the audience was free to move about and sit/stand wherever they liked. All of the action of the play was compressed and restricted to a single location, so the entire story played out in real-time, with actors emerging from the audience and reintegrating back into it when not required by the current scene.
