Romeo & Juliet
Asterions Hus has taken on Shakespeare, and the greatest love story ever told.
Out of this comes a moving, fast-paced and humorous performance.24 scenes, 24 lifegrips, 24 detours and 24 celebrations of love’s many faces and endings.
In their hands, the fantastic text of Shakespeare unfolds into worms dancing, sumo wrestlers in love, and ballet in wheelbarrows. There has never been so much life in playing dead!

Christianshavneren
“Supervital and glorious acrobatic and full of surprises in the staging. Quick summary, stormy love affairs. Full power on body and Prokofjev-music when Asterions Hus unleash the old ever-current classic.”
Århus stifttidende
“A vital dance universe filled with sweat, soil and raw energy. Every time in a new and surprising way. It is beautiful in a brutal way. Every muscle is stretched to breaking point in the two dancers impressive physique. Strongest is the show when it rises to wellchoreographed and powerful wordless dance in world class.”
