"Romeo and Juliet"

Shakespeare's Classic "Romeo and Juliet" Reimagined With Music and Dance

With Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes playing the star-crossed lovers, Baz Luhrmann famously reimagined Shakespeare's romantic tragedy. In the process, he made the Bard beloved by gaggles of teen girls everywhere. In their novel interpretation at Under St. Marks, the young and hip LES Shakespeare Company presents another fresh take on "Romeo and Juliet". With original compositions and choreography, the classic tale of two teenagers who fall in love and follow their passion -- against their feuding families' wishes -- pulses with new life.
