Set in the year 1301, at the end of the Medieval era, this groundbreaking production reimagines the classic story of literature’s most iconic lovers, taking it into a completely new, fresh, and contemporary realm. Drawing inspiration from the tragedy that William Shakespeare turned into myth, this version takes an unexpected turn, unveiling a truth that could alter the course of history—not only for its protagonists, but for the very future of the empire in which they live.
Far from being a simple reinterpretation, this work boldly challenges traditional conventions at their core. Instead of clinging to the poetic verse of iambic pentameter—a hallmark of Elizabethan theatre—the story unfolds to the rhythm of pop music. In doing so, the universal themes of love, fate, rebellion, and loss gain a surprising new intensity, conveyed through some of the most iconic and emotionally charged melodies of our time.
This bold fusion of the medieval and the modern breathes new life into a tale that has captivated generations, offering audiences a powerful and unexpected journey through timeless emotions, set to the soundtrack of today.
