Every time I read or watch "R&J", it seems as if it is the first time. There is a reason the classical production Romeo and Juliet is the most enduring, most often performed and adapted, most often recalled and remembered, play. There is such depth and breadth to the story, to the language and to these characters that we all think we know so well. What a challenge it must have been then for Paul Anthony to direct a group of passionate youths in this production.a production that for many of them was literally their "first time." It is obvious that reading a book gives you fuller idea of the story because you can read underline. This production is not an exception. As gripping as the book is the script lacks for/in portraying the protagonists. But on the whole the actors understood the role thoroughly.
The play is based on worldwide known and ever-topical Shakespeare's "Romeo& Juliet". .
