Romeo and Juliet
by William Shakespeare
Angell Blackfriars Theatre
Providence College
October 30-November 1 and November 6-8, 2009
The Department of Theatre, Dance, and Film opened its 2009-2010 drama schedule with six performances of Romeo and Juliet. Performances were held in the Angell Blackfriars Theatre in the Smith Center for the Arts.
The PC version of the venerable William Shakespeare tragedy was directed by John P. Garrity, associate professor of theatre arts and managing director of the Angell Blackfriars Theatre. - Розваги
FunFact: Back in the 1500s around Shakespeare's time, the Elizabethan Era, women were not allowed to act so all the women roles were done by Boys that had not hit puberty, including Juliet.
Wtf why would the boys agree to this cuz this would be total humiliation even then
So what that was a long time ago plus I'm sure people already know that
At that time they also had castratos and eunuchs.
+Awoken Vanguard I didn't know that
Manpreet Singh that's not a fun fact to me...and I'm male.
I have read the comments and no one seems to understand why the costumes are so modern. The director decided to take this play and modernize it. Many directors do this to give people a new perspective on the play. They want to express the beauty of this play as timeless and location-less.
Nah...they do it because it's cheaper than making costumes.
Um they still have costumes...?
thanks zombie yoshi
i love this one because i love the people that is playing Romeo and Juliet
that intro was incredible
Its interesting watching this after doing this play as friar john at my high school, and then watching how it is professionally done.
I'm so interested in Shakespeare's plays that I'm making myself memorize the introduction to this play for no reason lol I'm such a nerd.
The Prince has spoken.
Shakespeare is AWSOME I♥HIM , HIS ERA IS MY FAVOURITE ERA THE TUDOR TIMES!!!!!!!
No more fighting!
I was forced to come here by Hell (i mean school)
sameeeee
nice one
Me too; my professor said “Shakespeare!” And I said “To youtube I go!”
@@theaternerds2722 lmfao doing my paper on this bs too
Michael Li haha I feel ye brother; but I mean at least we don’t just gotta read it from a book when we can watch it XD
Woah Romeo and Juliet in Chicago 1900's
I love Romeo and Juliet so much. 😇
I love the nurse
Beautiful set and acting.
Now Ik somebody had 2 write a paper about this somebody hit me up 😭
SAME SAME
Romeo's great!
wonderful play
dance is awesome
It’s not that bad as the comment telling , I find it cute to watch as acting activity and the costumes in the dance part , I like it
anyone else see the kid in the background with headphones at 9:26 ? just me okay.
My high school is doing this play and the auditions already happened but we haven’t got the cast list yet, so I decided to watch this to get a better view on the play. And to the people saying that the clothes are too modern, many directors that do this play decide to modernize it, which I’m assuming they did with this one. Anyway, really good acting and it really helped me learn the characters
Good work
An example for young actors
What a pity that the microphones picked the footsteps overwhelmingly and that the reverberating echo made the actors lines sometimes difficult to hear.
Otherwise, bravo ! I would travel to Providence to see the play if it were acted once again
beautiful
I like the 1930's gangster ruled new york feeling to this take on the tragedy of romeo and juliet
i have to watch this video for english man god please kill me i’d rather die than watch the entirety of this video
i don’t even know who the fuck is who

It seems to me a very moving movie, for all times, as is love.
Romeo and juliet is my fav movie 👍👌🤝🤲🏼🏆🏅💜❤💘
This was great, I just wish they kept a theme with the costumes, it's very confusing.
Honestly, those of you saying "I didn't know the boys-as-girls thing," or far worse, "that's gay" (troll) -- did you pay even two seconds of attention in junior high or high school or even college? I am a college literature prof, and I teach Medieval and Renaissance era literature and drama. My students ALWAYS know a few facts when we begin Shakespeare--Elizabethan drama, and the most well-known fact is this fact exactly. They learn this when they are introduced to Shakespeare in junior high and high school and often the first play studied is Romeo & Juliet. It's mentioned/portrayed in many film versions -- see it addressed very directly in Shakespeare in Love (1998) (the entire ending scene works because of this convention). And, yeah, no it wasn't "gay." There is also a long tradition of women playing male roles in opera and on stage (see Peter Pan for one example). In the Elizabethan era, both acting and performance in music groups (traveling minstrels or troubadours) were considered very dodgy professions, and it was strongly felt that women should especially be prevented from involvement in such dodgy professions as Christian moralizing of the time argued that this public acting or singing could inspire lust in male viewers and invite inappropriate sexual attention and that an actress or singer was essentially "selling" her body to an audience. There was however increasing criticism of this practice since French drama featured actresses (and the English always loathed being behind the French with trends and culturally). By the time of Charles II, whose beautiful mistress was also a famous actress during Charles's rule, the practice was abolished. Young male singers, called trebles, were and still are used in certain standard forms of classical vocal performance such as polyphony or other types of religious musical expression. The practice was part of the culture, and must be understood on the terms of the time period. For some reason people tend to forget that we don't live at the end of all human history. We are IN history, and in 500 years our own time, and our own cultural practices and beliefs and medical science, etc etc will be judged by our ancestors. They will have their own thoughts about the ways in which some of our practices were/are "barbaric" and ignorant and/or filled with absurd superstitions. Yes -- they will absolutely find some of our beliefs to be superstitious and our practices to be barbaric -- like contemporary surgery for one example. Think where and what it was 500 years ago vs what it is now. We must remember that when we judge the past so harshly without thinking about how people then understood their world that we do an unfairness to them and to ourselves. It inhibits our understanding.
You are absolutely correct, but our descendents will judge our actions culture and practices 500 years from now (if humanity is still around then) not our ancestors.
i want translate !
I don't get how they kiss it is weird
the costumes look like it is WAY after the time period it should be but I do say their acting was very good
Juliet's costume doesn't match with Lady Capulet and the Nurse. Too pink and too short.
what is the theme here as far as the clothes and such? It looks like the eighties, (Juliet anyway)
William Austin dressed as modern
I went back and watched Act 3 scene 3. That whole thing was so funny and really good. Especially Tybalt's death, that was amazing😄 I mean not amazing that he died, just the way he went down. And Juliet was really good especially in her first scene. But my favorite has to be Mercutio in this version, RAWR😸 Other than that, the set was so on point and I like the whole thing❤️❤️💖
Yuvarajsing and yallamma I love you
so did the set/costume designer not communicate with everyone else, it's liket hey tried to modernisee it but they left the dialogue the exact same. Or did they just reuse the set from there production of the outsiders xD
If they touched the dialogue it wouldn't be by Shakespeare
Nice
2020 (lockdown)?
To me the guy who plays Romeo just doesn't feel right. He talks like a robot :| and he sounds like he's faking it... not like he is in love :P
Romeo and Juliet are 13 and 15. They don't actually know what love is which is another part of the TRAGEDY of Romeo and Juliet.
audio is a bit off... echo echo echo
Romeo and Juliet this movie
Which year one ?
I like the cousin’s costume
is this a stage play???
Ma. Cecilia Cunanan - No they filmed this on the grass at a park
Really well done! However, clarity of speech could have been worked out by using a better microphone maybe (I'm no expert). The acting is excellent and this really helped me revise the drama part for my IGCSE English literature examination. Can't thank you guys enough for this!! Just forget all the dumb commenters, these guys have no clue as to what modernisation is and why it's done.
Don't you just hate it when you walking along, minding your own business, and then some asshole walks up to you and diagnoses you with autism
me three
Love it love it bad costumes just horrible they are way too modern not believabe
Bradford Johnson what should they look like?
It’s a modernized version of the play. Fucking idiot.
me two:(
that one guy laughs like the Joker
Who's watching in 1599?
wtf bro u still watch this boring play in 1599? I only watched it once since 1346
what i arth is this
It's sad that I can't seem to find even one production of Romeo and Juliet that actually just goes by the book, without trying to modernize it or make some stupid statement. At least this version seems to have the original text...
i feel sorry for u CupMulti
i know but what is the story telling me about
حلو قوي قوي
They are leaving out HUGE chunks of text...........
WHY cant i hear what they say? never mind costumes
Um... they didn't use the original words of play and skipped a large portion of the act 1 scene 1 and the costumes r too mordern. HELLO! ITALY 1500s!!! I've only watched the beginning but their speech is good I guess...
They skipped so many parts.... WHY?! I have a copy of the original script and so much was skipped.
Koori Kae It's common for productions of Shakespeare, whether amateur or professional, to cut portions of the text. Modern audiences don't always have the concentration to watch an uncut script; likewise, theaters don't always have actors with enough training, talent, or experience to make a full production work.
Annis Feng you're allowed to cut a play you know. are you not familiar with theatre
So the fact that it's not against the law to cut a play is the excuse for leaving out some of the best parts?
It’s a modernized version of the play, you idiot.
hello student from redmonds class
I love Romeo and Juliet but it is so sad that Romeo is a mantegu and Juliet is a Capulet
Shakespeare would never use the "You" form when someone is talking to someone with anger or spite. When Tybalt says "Turn, Benvolio, and look upon your death" and "as I hate hell, all Montagues, and you" it just sounds wrong! I don't understand the change.
"Rearww"
FBI OPEN UP!
What's the play about Romeo and Rosaline called?
There is no such thing.
To seanplays: Lilian Hatch was making fun of the fact that Romeo is a player who was in "love" with a girl named Rosalind before seeing Juliet.
I understand modernizing the show, but the costumes don't have a cohesive theme. Romeo looks medieval, juliet looks 2010s punk rock, friar laurence looks 1970s. And what is the set. If this was my introduction to romeo and juliet I would have no idea where or when the story was set.
23:29 act 1 scene 5
I WANT TO FEED
Couldnt hear anything over the sound of them stomping around
We really gotta write a paper on this who cares 🤦🏾♂️
onb LMAO
Không có vietsub
i love islam
17:19
filmed on a potato
To me the movie is interesting but the guy who plays romeo does not even look like someone who has feelings.He talks like as if someone is controlling him with a remote.
1:46:28
1:34:50 😂
:)))
Haha
This is nothing like the gnomes 😒
fr🤣
Act 3: 56:04
Is there four different versus in the film?
@@bandz_5952 I’m not sure, haha. I only marked that because I used it for my English class 😂
Dog's Pizzle! I'll stick with McGonagall and Cat Stevens! They're poetry actually makes sense!
Two rocks rolling down a hill can put a better performance that this...
auh rude
what in earth is this
Preferred older actors not at all into it.
nothing like gnomeo 😒
Nice set, brilliant acting, TERRIBLE costumes.
What is the point of me pushing and pushing my brain with knowledge and intelligence if I can't be happy! Mike ( Me ) doesn't understand intelligence as brainy as this anyway! I do understand some Beatles' lyrics, and The Tay Bridge Disaster and such stuff that doesn't demand to much of my mind! I do like lists of polymaths! I laugh at the up their own arses folk who rave over and adore this fancy SHIT!
This is weird... the way they tried to modernize it doesn't come across well. The costumes are all over the place, the dialogue is inconsistent, and the acting is subpar. Plus you can't understand what they're saying.
Gabrielle Urbina yeah what was Juliet’s costume
To Be Honest, The Acting Is Terrible 😂
This is cringey asf
this sucks
i agree
i love this one because i love the people that is playing Romeo and Juliet
