Adapted for The National Theatre by Carl Heap 'The day is hot, the capulets abroad, And, if we meet, we shall not scape a brawl; For now, these hot days, is the mad blood stirring.'What's in a name? Imagine being born into the wrong family in the wrong place at the wrong time; and then you meet your true love… Primary Classics, produced by the National Theatre's Discover programme, aims to introduce children aged 7 to 11 to Shakespeare. This version of Romeo and Juliet, adapted and originally directed by Carl Heap, preserves the core of Shakespeare's plot, retains the original langauge, yet is presented very much with the target age group in mind. Carl Heap's introduction will help readers, teachers and practitioners alike to imagine or produce their own version.
