The greatest love story ever told – through ballet. An ancient family feud casts a long shadow over

the town of Verona. In this hothouse of tension, brawls are quick to break out and both sides get

caught in the crossfire.


The Capulets and Montagues are sworn enemies. Yet it is love at first sight for Romeo Montague and

Juliet Capulet when they meet each other at the Capulet ball, into which Romeo has snuck. The two

fall in love and they profess their devotion to each other at Juliet’s balcony. They secretly get

married. The stakes are raised for the young couple when Romeo avenges the death of his friend

Mercutio who has been killed by Tybalt, Juliet’s cousin. For this, Romeo is exiled from Verona.

Meanwhile, Juliet’s parents are forcing her to marry another suitor. In order to be together, Romeo

and Juliet must risk it all.

Reg Meuross: Fire & Dust, A Woody Guthrie Story

Reg Meuross: Fire & Dust, A Woody Guthrie Story
Reg Meuross: Fire & Dust, A Woody Guthrie Story
Running time: 2 Hours

All tickets include a £2 booking fee

Commissioned by Pete Townshend and created by Reg Meuross, Fire & Dust – The Woody Guthrie Story is a journey into the heart and soul of one of America’s finest folk musicians.

 Seeded by Townshend in 2019, this new work shows how the impact of Guthrie remains and how Meuross was the right man to tell this story through music and song. When Townshend called Reg to suggest the idea he saw how the project would “draw a direct line from Woody, through Bob Dylan, to Reg Meuross” and pledged his full support to realize this vision both as a studio album (which he co-produced and played on) and a series of live tours across the UK and beyond. 

 The breadth and depth of Reg Meuross’s material is unparalleled in contemporary folk: songs about forgotten heroes, famous names, folk legends, the climate emergency, tales from the kitchen sink and news from the world stage. If something needs to be sung about then Reg Meuross has a song for it and with Fire & Dust another important chapter of impeccably researched story-telling has begun.

 Highlighting racism, bigotry, corruption and inequality this incredible new song-cycle is focused on the life and times of the ‘Dust Bowl’ American folk musician and political activist Woody Guthrie – whose work remains so influential today. Drawing important parallels between Guthrie’s time and our own, each song shows Meuross at his absolute best – sharing stories from social history that are still highly relevant today. 

 Joined by Welsh pianist and accordionist Geraint Watkins (Nick Lowe, Van Morrison, Mark Knopfler, Paul McCartney, Status Quo, Bill Wyman, Peter Green to name but a few) as well as renowned string player Marion Fleetwood (TRADarrr, IOTA, The Sandy Denny Project and Fleetwood Cave) the album is scheduled for release March 2025. 

 In addition to the incredible line-up on the album and tours, Who legend Townshend not only co-produced the album but also features on two of the album tracks and will be appearing at the full band launch gig in the spring.

 “Reg Meuross is a purist…he sings in the neutral accent of an Englishman who travels the entirety of the British Isles, and tastes all its flavours, influenced by all its most profound national colours. In this he reminds one of Roy Harper or Ewan McColl, recent greats who went before him.” Pete Townshend
