In this production of "Romeo and Juliet", the Capulets and the Montagues are portrayed not as two feuding families, but as two hostile cultures living in the same community. Their bitter agressions and the vicious circle of their revenge bring on the tragic events of the play, reminding us of how similar conflicts in the world today destroy the lives of thousands of innocent individuals.
