Romeo and Juliet @ Sommertheater, Weimar

I got 2 tickets for William Shakespeare´s Romeo and Juliet as a birthday present from my girlfriend.  On a warm summer evening we packed our bags and headed towards Weimar. The theatre was built as a circle based in Weimar´s Goethe park. A very nice location and the really cool thing was, that the audience sat all around inside the circle and the acting happened right in the middle of the circle. And the acting had much action and motion. In many many ways it was a really modern interpretation with some parts below the belt, but with definetly great actors who made the 2 hours pass like a 2 minutes.

Enjoy 2 short videos I shot there :
