"The Bulgarian
director has filled the performance with the flavours and mentality of the
Balkans. (...)
The bloody feud of Montague and Capulet starts to resemble fights between
neighbours in the back yard. That notorious love story takes place behind
iron doors plastered with obituaries, and is gossiped about in the local pub."
Maria
Kassimova, "Standart", April '96

The
issue of this performance is enmity which in fact is mentality, and which is
genetically inherent. It flows into the blood of generations and generations
because there is no freedom. Enmity is a way of living. It is a generic definition
for any type of violence and disrespect for the personality. The problem is
that this world does not need personalities. And naturally allusions to our
reality are made. And no matter how old fashioned it may sound, the only way
to preserve the human within us is by preserving the personality, which in turn
goes hand in hand with love for freedom." Bojidara
Bojinova, "Literaturen vestnik", May '96 |

"At the geographic latitudes we live in hatred always explodes into bloody enmity.
It is hatred calling for revenge. This Verona has no place for love. It is tight.
And stuffy. And dull. The characters talk of love before they have felt it,
and as soon as they have in fact felt true love, they die." |
