๐น๐ถ๐ด๐ฌ๐ถ ๐จ๐ต๐ซ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ปVeronaโs Montague and Capulet families have been feuding for ages and whenever they meet, violence breaks out. But when Romeo glimpses Juliet across a crowded dance floor, something different happens. Can star-crossed love survive in a world of rivalry and rage?
With a plot featuring a masqued ball, sleeping potions and all-out brawling in the street, wrapped in a text full of soaring poetry, itโs no wonder Romeo & Juliet has inspired countless adaptations, from ballets to movies to musicals, such as West Side Story.
Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Joshua Baig
Assistant Directed by William Marlowe
