Theatre UBC promises a "brave and twisted approach" to Shakespeare's iconic love story Romeo and Juliet, set to play the Chan Centre Studio Theatre beginning January 20th through January 30th, 2010.
Directed by MFA in Directing Candidate Catriona Leger, the production features a cast of twenty-one acting candidates with original music performed live. One of Shakespeare’s most famous and best-loved plays, Romeo and Juliet has set the precedent for tragic love stories since it’s first performance in 1594. Love is the overriding theme of the play, but in the world of Romeo & Juliet this is a brutal and powerful emotion that captures individuals and catapults them against their world, and, at times, against themselves.
