Ola & Julia

Ola & Julia is a rock n’ roll Romeo and Juliet exploring the conflicts of love between two young performers.

Ola, a rock singer in a hugely popular Swedish band, and Julia, an avante garde actress touring a Beckett piece, both meet on the road whilst pursuing their separate but equally demanding disciplines. Love, of course ensues, but is it more powerful than performanc? And can it overcome the powerful pull of their respective families, the theatre troupe and the rock band?
