Romeo & Juliet (Kickstarter)

Support creating a DVD of Curio Theatre's controversial lesbian-themed production of Shakespeare's _Romeo and Juliet_.

West Philadelphia's Curio Theater began its 2013-14 season with William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Since the season was oriented on issues of gender, many of the roles in the play were switched from men to women.

Juliet's only parent was her mother, Lady Montague. Tybalt was a very different kind of character. And the play was now about a lesbian romance between Juliet and a woman named Romeo.
