''Romeo et Juliette: De La Haine a l'Amour'' ("Romeo and Juliet: From Hate to Love", though the subtitle is usually dropped in translations and the 2010 Paris revival was in fact known as ''Romeo et Juliette: Les Enfants de Verone'', which translates as "Romeo and Juliet: The Children of Verona") is a musical adaptation of ''[[Romeo and Juliet]]'' ([[Captain Obvious|obviously]]) by Gerard Presgurvic that premiered in Paris, France in 2001. It has since played in Canada, Belgium, Hungary, Russia, Austria, Mexico, Italy, South Korea, Romania and Japan (as well as the UK, but, well... the best that can be said for that production is that it did quite a bit better than ''Dance of the Vampires''). |

It follows many of the same story beats as Shakespeare's original play, but with enough differences to make it into its own beast. The Hungarian production is different enough from the others in terms of [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] and being considerably [[Darker and Edgier]] that it has its own separate section on this page. |
