Rómeó és Júlia

A Hungarian musical adaptation of French musical composer Gerard Presgurvic's Roméo et Juliette (Inspired by Shakespeare's Tragedy) featuring a mentally fucked Tybalt, fiery redhead Mercutio, an all but chaotic VeronaVerse and a death scene featuring Romeo (Rómeó) hanging himself to death and Juliet (Júlia) slashing both wrists. Not good for kids and snowflakes, but great for those who seeks an actually good Romeo and Juliet interpretation. The only downside is... It's written in Hungarian.

If only Rómeó és Júlia has a good set of English subtitles....

Romeo et Juliette

"Romeo et Juliette: de la Haine a La'Amour" is a French musical adaptation of Shakespeare's Tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" by Gerard Presgurvic featuring the the Montagues and Capulets looking like minions from League of Legends, a death persona, Baguette, Romeo with long hair, Baguette, Juliet singing like an angel and many more. The downside is... It's written in French.

This Romeo et Juliette musical has a Juliet with an angelic voice. If only her acting complements it...

Romeo and Juliet

An actually good and simple love story bastardized by an English playwright, featuring a fiery but gentle lady from the Capulets/Cappellettis, a stubborn but passionate lad from the Montagues/Montecchis, poison, secret marriage, dagger, death and sleeping with some old bones.

If only those damn teachers know Romeo and Juliet for what it actually is...

Dark Romeo

An interpretation of Romeo Montague from Romeo and Juliet that features the guy having dark and creepy tendencies. It ranges from stalker-like behavior to going full nuts after losing his Juliet.

The 1982 Romeo and Juliet film and the Hungarian adaptation of Gerard Presgurvic's Romeo et Juliette: De La Haine a L'Amour had this kind of Romeo interpretation as one of their main flavor.

Dyl: Saw Romeo and Juliet today in a community theatre. The Romeo is kind of creepy, yet very romantic.
Phyl: He must be a Dark Romeo.

Romeo

The main male character of Romeo e Giulietta/Romeo and Juliet. His personality may vary depending on the adaptations the theater and movie realm gave to the world, but one thing's for sure: He loves Juliet. Like crazy. His portrayal is characterized into two:
Dark Romeo and Classic Romeo. (I prefer the dark interpretation if you ask me.)

Feminazi: Romeo's so cringe. He's so clingy to Juliet and he acts so creepy I would definitely kill him on sight.
Guy who reads Romeo e Giulietta: At least he genuinely loves his girl, unlike you. Unlovable and disgusting feminazi.
Feminazi: *microagression* YOU MALE PIGS AND ROMEO SHOULD BURN AT THE STAKE!!!!!! *microgaression again*
Same guy: Idiot.

Classic Romeo

This (Full name: Classic Shakespearean Romeo) interpretation often follows the Shakespearean Tragedy as a guide, and as a result, most of the actors who did this interpretation often falls flat and outright boring. Those who nailed this, well... IDK. I've never seen actors who nailed this interpretation, as I think it's far harder to portray than its counterpart, Dark Romeo.

(To be honest with you reader, I hate Classic Romeo.)

Dyl: Do you like Romeo in Romeo and Juliet?
Phyl: Yes, but not the one in the Shakespearean Play. It's a Classic Romeo, and it never fails to give me the worst kind of cringe ever known to man.

Attila

1. One of the best Romeo actors the world has to offer has this name.

2. Also refers to Attila the Hun.

1. Dyl: Who's the guy who plays as Romeo? He's so good at it.
Phyl: He's Attila.

2. Romans seeing Huns roaming around the rosy: Godammit Attila.
