What I liked

I’m drawn to productions that explore Shakespeare from different perspectives.

The performer sinks his teeth into why Juliet might have preferred her Romeo to the young man her parents had arranged for her.

Charlie Day’s Paris is playfully oblivious to his overconfidence at first, but becomes a vessel for exploring how we woo — and that it can’t measure up to the poetry of the Bard.

What I didn't like

All good!

My overall impression

A lot of fun! Explores the ways we woo.
