A Tender Thing - St Lukes Wellness Centre
The Tasmanian Shakespeare Company presents "A Tender Thing" by Ben Power.
Romeo and Juliet, reimagined
What if the world's most famous lovers had grown old together? Tony Award-winner Ben Power (The Lehman Trilogy) masterfully reshapes Shakespeare's original text, weaving a poignant tale of enduring love, loss, and devotion. First staged by the Royal Shakespeare Company, this version of Romeo and Juliet reveals the profound connection that only a lifetime together can create.
'A wonderfully crafted reworking... extraordinary' ― Whatsonstage.com
'Incredibly effective, the language made fresh, its nerve endings exposed.' ― The Stage
'Power's ingenious re-organisation pays off handsomely... what did Shakespeare know?' ― The Guardian
