In this bold reimagining of Shakespeare’s timeless classic, we bring Romeo and Juliet into a world where love is as powerful as it is forbidden. Set against the backdrop of a society bent on tearing people apart, this production explores the raw, emotional core of the story through a queer lens, making space for love that feels urgent, rebellious, and full of defiance.

At the heart of this adaptation is the tragic intersection of love and societal forces—a powerful reflection of the political climate we face today, where the fight for queer rights remains as necessary as ever. The adults in the story, who ultimately fail the young lovers, take center stage here, emphasizing their role in the tragedy and the devastating consequences of their inaction.

The thesis of this production is simple yet profound: "I don't know how much time we have, but I love you." It speaks to the fleeting nature of life and the urgency to embrace love, even in the face of uncertainty and opposition. In a world shaped by emotion and movement—rather than time or place—this is a Romeo and Juliet for today, where love becomes an act of radical resistance, and its loss a devastating reminder of what society stands to lose.
