Description
An updated version of the classic play, located in a contemporary world (LA, Brazil) with mega-families that control major industries. It's a town where the Capulets and Montagus all have young blood that carry giant pistols (a substitute for the swords of old times). It is fast-paced, riotous in color and scenery and costumes, and seems to be quite true to the original text.
Theme
Romantic Love is doomed and we don't control our own lives.
Emotional Sum or Sense-of-life
Tragedy is central to life.
