In the vibrant borough of Merton, where our tale unfolds, a tale of old beef and new tensions emerges. Innocent blood has been shed, and intervention is desperately needed. Amongst the chaos, a boy and a girl, meant to be operatives, find solace in each other's company. They exchange secret glances, hold hands, and meet in hidden corners amidst the bustling shops. Their story, a reimagining of Shakespeare's iconic Romeo and Juliet, unfolds against the backdrop of a South London dancefloor on a fateful night that will forever alter their destinies.
Forced apart by generations of hatred, their young eyes meet across the pulsating beats of the dancefloor, igniting a spark that defies the odds. This is a remix of the classic tale, told through rap, rhythms, and beautiful harmonies. It is Romeo and Juliet, but like you've never heard it before. Put down your swords and pick up your microphones, for the course of true love never did run smooth.
Presented by Conrad Murray, the visionary behind the 2023 Offie Award-winning Pied Piper: The Hip Hop Family Musical, this hip-hop retelling features contributions from Lakeisha Lynch-Stevens, Khai Shaw, and Kate Donnachie. This edition, published in conjunction with the world premiere at London's Polka Theatre in March 2024, promises to captivate audiences with its unique and powerful storytelling.
So, immerse yourself in this reimagined version of Shakespeare's timeless masterpiece, where the course of true love takes unexpected turns and the power of music and passion transcends boundaries. As you witness the tale of Romeo and Juliet unfold in a new light, ask yourself: How far would you go for the person you love?
