In this divine and extremely clever comedy, tragic lovers Romeo and Juliet find that their actions have led them not to Paradise, but to Hell. In a parody of Dante’s “Inferno,” Romeo and Juliet arrive in Limbo where they await their judgment. The melodramatic Romeo and Juliet are in good company: the wise-cracking disembodied head of Macbeth, the bitter Lady Macbeth, and the scheming Iago are also being given a second chance to redeem themselves. These tragic Shakespearean characters must venture through the circles of Hell with help from their guide, Captain Fluellen, the leek-wielding Welshman from Henry V. Hell has never been so lively as their side-splitting tour brings encounters with Othello, Hamlet, the witches, the Drunk Porter, Puck, and other favorite Shakespearean characters. After speaking to the ill-fated and learning the lessons they offer, Romeo, Juliet, and their other tragic friends meet their maker... literally! Shakespeare appears at the pearly gates to pass judgment on his own characters and determine their fates.
