Based in IIUM, we plan to stage a minimum of two short plays a semester with a mix of original and notable plays, in both English and Malay. Our main aim is to add an

Check out these amazing shots from Shakespeare's R&J by TR. Ban Photography :D
Shakespeare's R&J adapted by Joe Calarco.
‘R&J’: ‘Romeo and Juliet’ For A New Generation!
Shakespeare’s R&J - klpac is the story of four young men who are students and who live in an authoritari-an environment, where intimacy of any kind is forbidden. They “find” a copy of Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, and discover the story of forbidden love. It awakens in them feelings so perilous, so powerful that it defies rationality. They become enthralled by the play that they break ‘house rules’ in order to continue reading it… they begin to act it out. The students’ find their beliefs are challenged; their relationships are threatened and they experience deep, intense and dangerous feelings – equal to those of the original star-crossed lovers. R&J is the story of Romeo and Juliet. Its dialogue is 95% Shakespeare, which is why it is so clever. It is about being young, curious, and rebellious.
