It seems to me, that Romeo and Juliet would be best for a non-theatre-going audience, because there has already been a film (albeit modernised) version. Also there is a not so well known film version of Hamlet, with Mel Gibson as Hamlet. I feel I must also mention 12th Night, because the only reason I didnt audition for it is I wasnt sure how I would go with the Shakespearian accent. Recognising some of the cast names from Class Act's Hotel Sorrento (another well done show), I would say that Audiences are in for a treat.
