First-Look Images Reveal Sadie Sink as Juliet in West End Romeo and Juliet

Published 1 April 2026

First-look images from a new West End production of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet have revealed Sadie Sink in the role of Juliet, opposite Noah Jupe as Romeo, at London's Harold Pinter Theatre. The photographs, released ahead of the show's press night, capture the stars in key scenes, including a kiss and moments of tension amid the classic tale of young love and family feud. Directed by Robert Icke, the production premiered earlier this month and is scheduled to run until June 20.

The staging reimagines the timeless tragedy of two young lovers from Verona caught in a web of rivalry and fate. Sink, dressed in an off-white corset and white shorts for some scenes and a red dress for others, appears alongside Jupe, who wears a black outfit. Additional images show her kneeling on a bed with cast members and holding a knife pointed toward her co-star. The production features a diverse ensemble, including Jamie Ankrah as Peter, Dylan Corbett-Bader as Benvolio, Eden Epstein as Lady Capulet, Clark Gregg as Capulet, Aruna Jalloh as Tybalt, John Marquez as Friar Laurence, Clare Perkins as Nurse, Lewis Shepherd as Paris, and Alexander Uzoka as Gregory, among others.
