The intimate atmosphere of the new 'Romeo + Juliet' production reimagines Shakespeare with a Gen Z sensibility, blending modern aesthetics and immersive engagement for the audience.
Before the play begins, the cast's casual interactions and cheer create a sense of community, emphasizing a DIY approach that invites the audience into the experience.
The use of teddy bears, like the one that Romeo hugs, adds a unique twist; they symbolize both comfort and the darker themes of the play as they conceal a stash.
While the first half is celebratory and relaxed, the transition to the tragic second half struggles to maintain the same tone, revealing challenges in pacing.
