Synopsis
Two young lovers fall hard and fast, but their families are sworn enemies. This bold reimagining, directed by Barrymore Award winner Amina Robinson (Once on This Island), draws on the traditions of early oral storytelling and old-school theater magic to breathe new life into Shakespeare’s most iconic tragedy. A story of violence and beauty, Romeo and Juliet reminds us of the risks we take for love and the cost of a world unwilling to change.
