CBC's Femme Capulet is an experimental take on Romeo and Juliet, where Shakespeare's original text is mashed-up with song and dance medleys in the style of Baz Luhrman's Moulin Rouge. The tale of the star-cross'd lovers is set in the burlesque house known as Femme Capulet, where two worlds, burlesque and hip-hop, collide. Can love triumph against familial obligation, hatred, and even time? Magical Mercutio knows This production will combine acting, dance, burlesque, aerial, street dance and singing.
