The Rijnlands plays: Romeo and Juliet

Het Rijnlands Lyceum in Oegstgeest has nurtured a drama tradition at its school for more than 30 years. Alternating musicals and stage performances are performed by students from all grade levels and education streams.

Once again, about 80 students and many teachers worked with great enthusiasm on this year’s performance, Romeo & Juliet. Directed by Cees van Damme, music is provided by Mark van der Laaken and Gerwin van der Werf.

20 years ago, Het Rijnlands Lyceum Oegstgeest performed Romeo and Juliet once before. You may remember the arena where the players had to protect themselves from real rain with umbrellas. The new performance promises to be at least as wonderful!

Romeo & Juliet is the most famous love story of all time. The impossible love between Juliet Capulet and Romeo Montague has remained undiminished in popularity from its first performance in 1596.
