Two rival families.
Two youngsters who turn their parents' hatred into love. A love story that will defeat time. And a new opportunity to celebrate the miracle of theatre.
"Romeo and Juliet", by the Ukrainian director Andriy Zholdak, is a eulogy to beauty, but also a descent into the darkness of absolute passion. A modern adaptation of the Shakespearean text, the latest performance of the well-known "enfant terrible" of European theatre offers us a poetic experience about the abyss of the young soul and about its strength to find salvation through love. In challenging times, threatened by the pandemic and the war waged in the neighbourhood of our country, the Sibiu National Theatre offers viewers a memorable revisiting of a canonical text of universal culture that speaks, more than ever, about the "state of emergency" created by the act of giving oneself to the other. Against this backdrop of overwhelming emotions, the central couple stands out, who love each other to death, just as they ultimately die in order to love. With intensity, with stubbornness and, above all, with the hope that only youth and innocence can conquer.
Bringing the students of the Department of Theatrical Arts to the forefront, the Sibiu production is a celebration of youth and a non-conformist way of experiencing stage emotion, aimed at making us partakers of the regenerative power of theatre in a present paralyzed by fear.
