Inhaltsangabe

Let's face it - Romeo and Juliet got tons of bad advice from the adults in their lives. From a secret wedding to running from the law to faking a death, these kids never had much of a chance. That's why they've been dying on stage for hundreds of years. It's time they got a fresh start.'White Trash Classics Presents: Romeo and Juliet' takes our naive, star-crossed lovers and sets them in two warring trails parks. The Crapulets and the Mountafoos are still at odds. And these two poor kids still suffer tragic turns of fate with the prodding and prompting of so-called grown ups they turn to for advice. While the time honored story beats of The Bard's tale remain true, here we get a look at the comic side of Shakespeare's play. In these pages you'll meet the local Sewer King, a fancy chicken breeder (who also performs weddings on the side), a corrupt Mayor on the take, Uncle Cousin Bobby (an amateur coroner's assistant) and the worst marital counselor of all time.Crude? Yes. Offensive? Sure. A desecration of literature? Maybe. But refreshingly readable and relatable for a modern audience looking to spend a humorous afternoon with a play they might have struggled with in high school.
