In a dark world where love is the only currency left to trade in and where adults seem eerily absent, lives a teenage girl called Rose. Rose is beautiful, fragile and in love with an unnamed boy who loves her madly back. Then, one fateful night, Rose is forgotten. This story is about sweet revenge, innocent manipulation and slavish devotion to the impossible. This is a play about a young girl and her relationship with three very different men. This is a story about Rose and her undoing.

Any Other Name shifts Shakespeare's classic Romeo and Juliet into the hands of the forgotten woman and the hand she played in the events we know so well. Written with the rhythms of iambic pentameter using contemporary language, the play takes us from youthful romance to a thrilling psychological study of a young girl driven to dark deeds.

CRY HAVOC have just returned from their Residency at Arthur Boyd’s Bundanon Trust where they spent a week developing the third draft of Any Other Name.
