Cirque visionary Shana Carroll conceived and directs DUEL REALITY, an acrobatic adaptation of ROMEO AND JULIET. Performed by Montreal-based The 7 Fingers, this production takes the conflict at the heart of ROMEO AND JULIET and sets it in a sports arena. The heightened physicality and emotion of the setting modernizes the production and makes it more accessible to a wide array of audiences.
