ROMEO AND JULIET – A BIG SUCCESS!

We’re pleased to say that Romeo and Juliet at Lincoln Drill Hall was a great success, both artistically and financially. We sold 440 tickets over three productions and managed to make a small profit, but most importantly the feedback on the production was very positive indeed.

Many thanks to everyone who put in so much hard work to create such a fantastic production, and to everyone who came to see the show. We appreciate your support!
