Backyard Cinema’s critically acclaimed screenings of Baz Luhrmann’s iconic 1996 Romeo+Juliet is set to come to Merseyside for the first time in September. Enjoyed by over 100,000 fans during its time in London, the exclusive week of screenings will take place at the beautiful Grade II listed St George’s Hall in Liverpool.

Screening the iconic film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes, the greatest love story ever told will set spines tingling amongst atmospheric candle-lit aisles of the intimate, timeless and somewhat unknown concert room inside the hall, now one of UK’s most mesmeric venues. The famous movie soundtrack will be brought to life with live musicians and choir performing before the film, during the interval and after the screening. Expect to hear favourites including Young Hearts Run Free, Everybody’s Free (To Feel Good), When Doves Cry and many more.

Dominic Davies (Backyard Cinema Founder & CEO) says “I can’t wait to show Liverpool our most famous show Romeo+Juliet with a live choir, and where better to host this epic event than Liverpool’s St George’s Hall. It’s truly a special show and I couldn’t be more excited.”

Hannah Sweeney (St George’s Hall Head of Venue Operations) ‘We knew the splendour and opulence of St George’s Hall would be the perfect setting for their epic Romeo+Juliet show. After seeing it in London we knew we had to host it, there won’t be a dry eye in the house.”

Strictly limited in numbers, the screenings are sure to sell quickly.
