Sadie Sink is channeling her inner Juliet Capulet on the West End stage. The 24-year-old actress opened up about seeing herself in the Shakespeare role. She also shared mixed emotions about the end of Stranger Things.
Sadie Sink plays Juliet in the current West End production of Romeo and Juliet. She told Nylon she initially questioned the character but later connected with Juliet's rich inner world and resilience.
The actress described feeling the same isolation and self-reliance that define the role. "As someone who spends a lot of time alone, I was like, ‘Oh, actually, I relate to that a lot,’" she said.
Sink also reflected on the Stranger Things finale in the same interview. Watching with her brother turned emotional as the ten-year run closed, leaving her with bittersweet feelings.
London's recent heatwave made it hard for audiences to stay focused during shows. Sink joked that she could feel them draining and urged them to stay with her.
She plans to return to New York once the production ends, though she has enjoyed making a home in London.
