Rubbish Romeo and Juliet

This show is fantastic. Everyone in our family loved it and laughed from start to finish, and cringed a fair few times too. Highly recommended for all ages.

Took our 11 year old grandson. We all loved the show. Brilliant from start to finish. A clever mix of humour and serious Shakespeare.

We saw Midsummer Night’s Dream a few years ago and have watched out for these guys ever since. We were sad they weren’t at the Fringe last year but delighted to see them back. My children are teenagers but the show really is for everyone. Lots of laughter, jokes, ad libbing and Shakespeare. We were at a show when there was a last minute replacement and you really couldn’t tell, although it was referenced in the show I thought it was a joke as Ryan was so good. Excellent show for all ages highly recommended.

A very funny and engaging show for the whole family. My 11 y.o and 8 y.o. enjoyed every minute and rated it 5 stars. Plenty for grown-ups to enjoy too! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to have a laugh.

We saw Midsummer Night’s Dream in 2021 & loved it so returned to see Romeo & Juliet with my 5 year old this morning- we both had the best time! Amazing how this trio stay true to the plot using Elizabethan & modern language to give what feels like a truly Shakespearean yet accessible experience. This is Shakespeare for all!

The best kids show we’ve been to! Laughed from the start to the end. We adults enjoyed it as much as the kids. We have seen these guys before and they didn’t disappoint. Will definitely be back next year! This is a must see for anyone looking for something that is suitable for all the family ☺️

This was so so good! They had the whole audience laughing the whole way through, captivating even my 1 year old. My son’s highlight of our 2 days in Edinburgh was ‘throwing a sausage roll at an actor’. A must see for Fringe visitors with kids (and those who are young at heart and love bum joke!)

Madcap, fun, a show for all ages! We really loved it.

My nearly 6 year old daughter saw this for the second time today and wants to go again. She can’t stop talking about her favourite funny bits of the show and quoting lines from it. A fantastic introduction to Shakespeare. I also loved it; it made my day. This show deserves to be sold out every day. By far the best kids show we have seen on the Fringe for years, and we’ve been to a lot! 5*’s from us

One of the best shows I’ve seen so far at the Fringe. Very engaging for younger audience, but appealing to adults sense of humour too. Brilliant use of a classic Shakespeare tale made accessible. Went with my two twenty something daughters and we all enjoyed it as much as the kids did. Definitely a must see for all ages!

This show was great. I mean it was rubbish, but in the best and most hilarious way. You may well expect this to be just Shakespeare themed silliness (which is perfectly good in its own right) but it is actually a bit more that that. The show is silly with the text for sure but it does tell the story rather well and uses a good amount of the original text. What I particularly liked was that when performing the Shakespeare lines, the actors made a good show of saying them with conviction and passion. It's not just rubbish, as the company would suggest, but some top drawer silliness woven into a fun retelling of Romeo and Juliet.

This show was pure belly laughing Children’s slap-stick. (It’s not one of those shows that tries to be too clever and make too many indirect references to Shakespeare). These three drag us along through the story, wearing several wigs, and making every kid giggle like crazy the whole way through. BRILLIANT. My 8 & 10 year olds say this is the best show they’ve seen out of 10 so far this year.

Absolutely fantastic show, equally hilarious for both adults and children yet manages to retain the essence of the play. We had already seen Shakespeare for Breakfast and this was far superior! Highly recommended!!

Absolutely hilarious show and really well performed. The adults found it just as entertaining as the kids. Highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing! It was my first show at the fringe and it was a magical moment for me. It was the best show by a long way. You must see it! Brilliant.

10/10!!! A hilarious and engaging hour long roller coaster ride full of laughs and entertainment. Brilliant for kids and grown ups alike. 5*

Amazing show! Laughed from start to finish. Was so funny- my 12,11 and 6 year olds loved it too. Cleverly done mixing the real story and words with modern jokes and references. Highly recommended!
