A newly devised, modern adaptation based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. This star-crossed couple is entirely non-traditional from what we’re used to seeing. Juliet – fat and queer. Romeo is much a younger trans-man. The rest of the characters are doubled and non-conventionally cast. Script will be written by a diverse pairing of playwrights based on devising workshops starting in Winter 2023.
