“These violent delights have violent ends.” The passionate and great love of two young lovers who are mired in an unresolved conflict: Romeo and Juliet. Does the passionate, blinding love merely belong to youth? Or is it the name of a common passion, a feeling cannot be captured which turns us into someone else. Is Shakespeare trying to say that love makes us Romeo or Juliet regardless of our identity, social status, and cultural background? If it is so, would you have the courage to be Romeo or Juliet? The last question is the starting point of this interpretation of Romeo & Juliet to be staged in the festival.
