Directed by Craig IIott
Adapted by Joe Calarco

A Four Man Testosterone-pumped Romeo and Juliet.

R & J is an innovative, sexy new interpretation of Shakespeare's classic tragedy. In the repressive atmosphere of a Catholic boys school, four young students decide to stage Romeo and Juliet for their own enjoyment. At first it's just for laughs, but as the young men discover the themes of secret and forbidden love, they gradually immerse themselves in the roles.

This fascinating, insightful and beautifully crafted play was acclaimed in its premiere season at the Sydney Opera House Studio in 2001. Now R & J returns in a new production directed by Craig IIott (Hedwig and The Angry Inch). Winner of the prestigious Lucille Lortel Award, R & J ran for 400 performances in New York City, the longest run of any production of Romeo and Juliet.
