LINCOLN MONDAY 14th FEBRUARY ROYAL OPERA HOUSE SCREENING OF ROMEO & JULIET

The doomed lovers attempt to find their way through the colour and action of Verona where, all too quickly sword fighting and a family feud leads to tragedy for both the Montagues and the Capulets. n Tickets £17, from 7pm, New Theatre Royal, Lincoln. 01522 519999, for more, see www.newtheatreroyallincoln.co.uk
