It is a homecoming for Sadie Sink, who has spent much of her life in the theater. At just 10 years old, she made her Broadway debut playing the lead in Annie, and later went on to appear in The Audience. Soon after, she got her big break on screen with Stranger Things, but she never left the stage behind. 

She returned with an incredible performance in John Proctor Is the Villain, even earning a Tony Award nomination. Now, the actress has returned to the stage again, showing mesmerizing visuals for Romeo & Juliet.

Sadie Sink is seen in a breathtaking beige gown as she takes a bow after an incredible performance as Juliet in director Robert Icke’s 21st-century retelling of Romeo & Juliet. The show began at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London’s West End on March 18, with the official opening night set for March 31. Beside her is Noah Jupe (Hamnet, A Quiet Place), who looks dapper in a black jacket, as the two slowly walk away together.

Jupe and Sink will continue to charm with their powerful performance and electric chemistry as Romeo and Juliet until June 20. Both the actors were selected by Icke and producer James Bierman. Having produced plays such as Prima Facie, Bierman is known for a keen eye for talent. Bierman praised Sink’s performance in John Proctor Is the Villain and her strong stage presence.

“(She) has real, great stage presence and obviously has grown up on stage,” Bierman said. 

Sink has successfully maintained a balance between theater, series, and films. After appearing as Juliet, she is also set to appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Although details about her role in the movie are tightly under wraps.
