Roméo et Juliette, de la Haine à l'Amour
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Musical by the French composer Gérard Presgurvic, based on William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet.
"Roméo et Juliette, de la Haine à l'Amour" is the most successful French-language musical ever. Since its world premiere on January 19th, 2001 it has been seen by more than six million people around the globe. "Roméo + Juliette" is the first musical to conquer the world from Paris. Productions have been subsequently produced in Canada, Antwerp, London, Amsterdam, Budapest, Moscow, and Vienna. Productions in Italy, Poland, Portugal, Spain, China, Japan, and Korea will follow.

[edit] Plot
This play essentially retells Shakespeare's classic tale, with minor differences. The original Elizabethan English text is hardly used, almost everyone is aware of the lover's "secret" marriage, and their deaths are changed depending on productions. Lord Montague is only seen in the British production, and new characters, such as Death (French, Belgian, Netherlands, and Moscow productions only) and the Poet (French production only) are added for dramatic effect. Also, Lady Capulet has a greatly increased role, more often than not a voice of reason.
Gérard Presgurvic translated Shakespeare’s play into a musical dominated by pop and rock elements, keeping the text straight and lean and thus perfectly contemporary. This musical drama marries acting, dance and singing and grasps the viewer’s hearts and minds alike.
