In Adelaide today, March 8th, a French theater troupe puts on a twist on Romeo and Juliet featuring werewolves and vampires as the feuding families. Things take a dark turn when one cast member actually dies during the show, sparking a who-done-it mystery blended with comedy. The production leans into self-aware humor, constantly breaking the fourth wall and poking fun at theater tropes. With homemade props, simple costumes, and basic staging in a small venue, it captures the vibe of a scrappy group just trying to make it work. Standout performers include Lisa Baker as the lovable, but dim officer hugs, Amelia Pazzi as the sharp tonn Juliet, and director Anna Swaddling, who jumped in last minute to play a role with plenty of charm. The rest of the cast, like Tima Alexandrov as the pompous leader, and Jay Watts as the while Jordan bring solid energy to. Despite the talent, the show struggles with pacing that stays too even, never building enough chaos for the farce or tying up the mystery threads. Properly,

lots of jokes start strong, but fizzle out without follow through. Overall, it delivers some laughs and quirky fun, but falls short of being a full on hilarious disaster by spreading itself too thin across ideas. Still worth a look for lighthearted theater fans.
