Journal Article
Romeo and Juliet
2015
Overview
[...]with more audience members in the room, there is more that can go somewhat awry-and the night I saw Romeo and Juliet was one such night. According to the extensive programme notes, director Polina Kalinina had decided to set Shakespeare's play in 1968, using the student unrest in Europe as its backdrop. Costumes and hairstyles suitably evoked the era, and the action began with the Chorus replaced by a lone young woman entering and walking onto the battered merry-go-round that was the sole set piece in the first half, singing an arrangement of a sonnet.
