The woke musical adaptation of Romeo and Juliet featuring a neofeminist blackwashed Juliet, an annoying Romeo (Not him of all...), the Francois bullshit, the non-binary nonsense and a shitty journey after she escaped the tomb. Combine it with flashing lights, lazily-made mashup of mainstream pop music, cringy costume designs, out-of-place "necromancy" (They revived damn Romeo like God... Just give him the rest he deserved.) and dopamine triggers and it becomes a hit in Broadway and West End. A desecration of Da Porto, Bandello and Shakespeare's work. The ultimate sacrilege.
Karyn, the Woketard: &Juliet rocks! Broadway never fails to make a good Romeo and Juliet musical... I mean a Juliet musical because no Romeo this time. Girl Power!
Phyl, a Shakespeare R and J fan: That musical can suck my dick. An insult to Shakespeare.
Dyl, a Rómeó és Júlia fan: They turned Romeo of all things into a jerk... What a sacrilege. Also, Broadway is just overrated for me.
Karyn, the Woketard: You guys are just whiny haters. & Juliet for the win!
Dyl and Phyl: *facepalm*

Get the & Juliet mug.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.)
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.

Get the Romeo mug.*The rebuilt one to be specific.*
A disgrace to William Shakespeare himself and the theatre realm as a whole. This "theatre" desecrated Sainte Jehanne la Pucelle (Saint Joan the Maid)
of France with their play "I, Joan", and puts unnecessary trigger warnings and suicide helplines to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, a play known for the damn suicides.
Like dear, imagine being traumatized by this production of Shakespeare's R and J... It's just like Romeo+Juliet by Luhrmann with guns, blackwashed Romeo and Giulietta and stuff. Hungary's Rómeó és Júlia for example is literally far more deranged in all aspects, but they offer no trigger warnings, and it's not even a Shakespeare play. It's a musical. This " Globe Theatre" is absolutely ridiculous.

Woke theatre kid: Joan of Arc is non-binary! I know it all along!
Sane theater lover: Did you go to the Globe Theatre?
Woke theatre kid: Yes! I even watched their Romeo and Juliet! Love it because the couple are represented by blacks! Yay diversity! Also, they offer trigger warnings and helplines too. They're so generous for my gentle mind.
Sane theatre lover: If you think St. Joan is non-binary, then I would recommend you to read the REAL story of her. She's a woman, not non-binary. Also, do you think their R and J is so deranged, it needs the nonsense helplines and TWs?
Woke theatre kid: *drools* Yes! Its bloody, which can upset some people.
Sane theatre lover: *smirks* Try to watch the musical Rómeó és Júlia and come back to me a day later.
A day later...
Sane theatre lover: Hey, how's the musical?
Woke theatre kid: *suicide scene flashbacks*

Get the Globe Theatre mug.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.

Get the Dark Romeo mug.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.

Get the Classic Romeo mug.One of the best ways to divide us humans even further, by telling to ourselves that sharing cultures is a threat to a nation, even with the reality that all cultures must be welcoming what other cultures can offer for mutual growth.
If you believe a white man for example can not be inspired by cultures made by blacks/yellows/whatever just because his skin is white, you are a threat to the survival of culture itself, as assimilating good values of other cultures to improve yours and sharing your good values to those interested as well is vital to humanity's growth as a whole.

Jane, the Woke SJW: You can't wear a Salakot, you cis white man! That's cultural appropriation! You're endangering Filipino culture by wearing that!
Dylan, A Filipino born in the US: Yes! It is not appropriate! Salakot is for Filipinos only! *takes it from the white guy*
Sean, the white guy: WTF!
Teodoro, a Filipino from the Philippines: *grabs the salakot from Dylan and gives it back to Sean* What are you guys talking about? It's fine! Nothing's wrong with a white guy wearing our creations, as it promotes and shows the capability of Filipino weavers, idiot! Also, it's art, and art must be shared, bobo!
Dylan: *confused on what bobo means*

Get the Cultural Appropriation mug.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.
