My overall impression
This production gave me new insight into the story of Romeo & Juliet. Not because the gender reversals made a grand comment about society and gender roles, but because the gender reversals made the characters no less whole. Where most productions of Shakespeare plays struggle to make either the concept modern or the style classical, this production made classical characters modern. I got to see timeless characters as people in my world. I got to see the question of how to treat innocence, tested in a timeless space.
