Went to see Romeo & Juliet

Went to see Romeo & Juliet. Was looking forward to seeing this interpretation. Sadly it wasn't for us. Shouting Shakespeare does not translate me the spoken word. It felt Iambic pentameter had been misunderstood. Juliet was far removed from a sensitive, young 13 year old on the brink of exciting romantic love- think more boardy pub landlady. Romeo lacked lustre for us and often when characters marched to the other side of the stage the projection was lost for us on the other side. It embraces the bawdy audience of days gone by but sadly lacked emotion and substance. Left after first half.
