Storytelling Shakespeare: Romeo & Juliet

In a first-ever collaboration, the KL Shakespeare Players and Bentley Music Academy are teaming up to perform Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, taking the Bard's famous love story from page to stage, but now, accompanied by live orchestral music! We find out what's in store from Lim Soon Heng, the Executive Director of the KL Shakespeare Players, and Kevin Field, the Director of Academic and Artistic Development at Bentley Music Academy. Soon Heng is also one of the performers in the show, and Kevin is the conductor of the performance.
