JULIET AND THE ROMEOS

(Grant Jacobs, Daisy Spencer, Lyle Buxton & Rory Booth)

Back by popular demand at Catalina Theatre from October 6 is Juliet and the Romeos, the delightfully wacky mini-musical devised and directed by Charon Williams-Ros, with script writing input by Rory Booth. The show stars Daisy Spencer, Grant Jacobs, Lyle Buxton and Rory Booth.

This engaging comedy musical takes a madcap look at the world of love, men and women. Under musical direction of Shem Mahabeer on keyboards, the Solid Gold band also features Llewellyn Chetty on bass, Dane Francis on guitar and Dillan Kanny on drums.

“We all know what happens when a woman sets her mind on something: no-one rests until it is achieved. One such woman is Juliet Cupido who tells the hapless story of her search for the ideal man in her life,” says Williams-Ros, the creative force behind this fun show.

Choreographed by Daisy Spencer, Juliet and the Romeos features the music of Michael Jackson, John Legend, Lionel Ritchie, Michael Bublé, Bruno Mars, Whitney Houston, the Cornelius Brothers, Smokey Robinson, the Ting-Tings and many others.
