Romeo and Juliet

Translated by::

The puppet show adaptation of William Shakespeare’s widely known drama contrasts fate and chance. Picturing the acceleration of time in today’s world it shows us that the hatred of two families for each other can easily lead to tragedy. Romeo and Juliet’s love could bring light into this world but every decision and action drifts them farther from reconciliation. The performance possesses a special world of forms. The hand and leg movements emphasize
the grotesque nature of the situations. Besides they have become the instruments of expressing love and passion. The gloves stand for the soul of the characters, taking off the gloves points to the death of the character. There is a continuous play with light and darkness.

Romeo and Juliet is a children’s matinee charged with humor and passion, a show that has a message for all the age groups.
