The adaptation I want to make is from the scene when Romeo and Juliet first met at the party. I feel like this scene would be perfect because it's so easy to modernize and it would fit in well. The characters in it would be of course Romeo, Juliet and Mrs Capulet. This adaptation would take place in a arcade. The staging is similar to the party because theres a lot of people having fun playing games, and thats similar to a lot of people having fun and dancing. Then Romeo and Juliet could meet and have an instant connection when they happen to see each other playing a game they both like. It's a two player game and they played together, later falling in love. Then they find out that their parents don't like each other because of a conflict at work. Since their at an arcade there would have to be games, food, kids, and a lot a noise from the games being played, music in the background, and people talking having fun. The costumes can be casual dress because first of their kids and they didn't wake up thinking to impress somebody, they just wanted to be comfortable and play arcade games. The lighting in the arcade would be dark, the lights from the games are going to light the place up. The lights from the different games are going to be different colors so the place would look magical with a spectrum of colors flashing everywhere. I'm trying to set a videy relaxful mood with this setting. Kids just wanna have fun, maybe get away from problems or a stressful day of school and they didn't do so good on a test or something. The main reason why I chose this adaptation was because growing up I missed the going out to arcade stage. Technology sky rocked, so first there was arcade games then there was iPhones and everyone could play multiple games at home on their xboxes or PlayStations. So going back to simple times and seeing and meeting people would be cool to image. Also it's not likely to walk into an arcade and see a bunch of kids like that running around, it's only like that In the movies.
