Romeo & Juliet
Underlings presented this classic tale of star-crossed lovers divided by their families' hatred with two special twists. The show was performed in its original pronunciation, a recreation of the dialect Shakespeare and his contemporaries used. We set the action in a 1980s high school, inspired by films like Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Heathers.
