Information

More detailsExternal link

Juliet and Romeo fall in love while their families are engaged in a bloody feud: probably the most famous play in world literature. The balcony scene, the dialog “It was the nightingale and not the lark” after the night of love, the tragic ending – all this is etched into our cultural memory.

In Shakespeare’s play, violence is the origin, pivot and end point of tragic love. The fact that no one remembers the reason for the war seems irrelevant. In the parental homes, it is unquestionably cemented how it has always been – and against whom it has always been. The production takes the famous first verse “Two houses, both equal in rank and status” as the starting point for its narrative. Two hostile worlds stand parallel on stage, but they are astonishingly similar. Are the rifts so deep because they are closer to each other than they would like to admit? In any case, there is no place for Juliet and Romeo to try out a new togetherness.

In his radical and celebrated theater works, director Emre Akal exposes social structures in terms of their power mechanisms. In his own visual language, which places the actors’ bodies at the center of the narrative, he finds a powerful meta-narrative for the most famous love story of all time.

To this end, the artistic duo Mehmet & Kazim combine pop digitality with the three-dimensionality of theater so consistently that they become one. This is the artistic team’s second time working in Graz after staging Jelinek’s “Sonne / Luft”.
