A fun, feminist makeover of Romeo and Juliet chooses life – with a great pop soundtrack
What if Juliet’s end was a new beginning? That’s the question & Juliet answers by giving Juliet (Miriam-Teak Lee) a second chance at life. When Shakespeare (Oliver Tompsett) is persuaded by his wife, Anne Hathaway (Cassidy Janson), to change Romeo and Juliet’s ending, Juliet goes on a wild trip from Verona to Paris with Anne, May (Arun Blair-Mangat) and Nurse (Melanie La Barrie). Things go awry when an unlikely love triangle unfurls and Romeo (Jordan Luke Gage) miraculously comes back to life.
