Hong Kong International Shakespeare Performance Exchange: “Romeo and Juliet”

Projecte Ingenu is a Barcelona-based theatre research group. They wanted to build a space of “rest” - with the aim of merging professional work with personal development and investigation of a possible model of contemporary actor. Differing from the original tragic setting, Romeo & Juliet is a playful comedy full of youthful energy. This unique performance merges various performing elements. Performers convert quotidian objects into scenography in a simply but interesting way. It's the first time for audience to watch this classical tragedy with laughter!
