朱丽叶&罗密欧: 幸福婚姻与长寿指南
Juliet & Romeo: A Guide to Long Life and Happy Marriage
迷犬剧团 Lost Dog
如果罗密欧和朱丽叶没有死，而是活了下来，携手步入婚姻的琐碎日常，他们的爱情又会呈现出怎样的面貌？
如今，他们已步入四十岁左右的年纪，至少其中一位正深陷中年危机。他们常常被自己年少时的激情嘲讽，也被“浪漫爱情代言人”的光环压得喘不过气。于是，他们决定用一场演出来直面当下的困境——一场关于他们自己的演出。但他们的治疗师明确表示：这是个糟糕透顶的主意。
With Lost Dog’s blend of dance, theatre, and comedy this duet reveals the real story of Romeo and Juliet. It turns out they didn’t die in a tragic misunderstanding, they grew up and lived happily ever after. Well, they lived at least.
Now they’re 40ish, at least one of them is in the grips of a mid-life crisis, they feel constantly mocked by their teenage selves and haunted by the pressures of being the poster couple for romantic love. They have decided to confront their current struggles by putting on a performance – about themselves. Their therapist told them it was a terrible idea.
这部双人舞剧聚焦人们对青春的执念，以及无可避免的漫长人生所带来的各种难题。
This duet takes on our cultural obsession with youth and our inevitable issues with longevity.
《朱丽叶与罗密欧》这部作品基于莎士比亚最为人知的悲观爱情故事，在舞团的重新诠释下，以另一种角度来探讨我们文化中对于所谓青少年爱情的想象，对于真爱恒久远的迷思，还有对婚姻关系中不切实际的期望。在男女主角精彩的诠释之下，带我们领略爱情的美好、幽默、荒谬与哀伤。
作为一部融合戏剧与舞蹈的作品，《朱丽叶与罗密欧》借助肢体语言表达人物的情感内核。迷犬剧团善于通过舞蹈捕捉情感的微妙变化：争吵时的激烈动作、和解时的温柔接触，甚至在沉默中展现关系的裂痕。这种表演形式将观众从语言中解放，直接与角色的内心世界共鸣。
This production reimagines Shakespeare's most iconic tale of tragic love, offering a fresh perspective on cultural notions of teenage romance, the myth of everlasting true love, and the unrealistic expectations placed on marriage. Through the compelling performances of the lead actors, it invites audiences to experience the beauty, humor, absurdity, and sorrow of love in all its complexity.
Blending theatre and dance, Juliet & Romeo uses movement to express the emotional core of its characters. Lost Dog excels at capturing the subtle shifts in emotion through dance—fiery movements in moments of conflict, gentle touches in reconciliation, and even the quiet fractures of a relationship revealed in silence. This unique performance style frees the audience from the confines of language, allowing them to connect directly with the characters’ inner worlds.
