Romeo and Juliet at the Utah Shakespeare Festival

I chose the story of Romeo and Juliet to see as a live play at a Shakespeare festival because the story was the most gripping to me. This for me brought drama to a new level in the classic romance. It would be extremely interesting to see how the actors display the scenes where Romeo and Juliet fall in love and see if they make it feel real like movies can in present times. What would be even more interesting is to see how they bring to life the heartbreak and sadness of the suicides of both Romeo and Juliet. I chose to see this play specifically at the Utah Shakespeare festival because it claims to pay attention to detail and I wouldn't want to see it with any new added elements, what I find intriguing is the history and originality of the play. It also says that it will play after "Shakespeare in Love" which shows how Shakespeare may have written the play in the first place which again shows that it will try to remain authentic.
