Last Saturday I saw a production of Romeo and Juliet that had no words. The actors used dancing and movement to convey the story line. The lighting and music help give context and emotion to the scenes.
It was a modern interpretation. The dancing was modern dance and the music was kind of techno. I enjoyed it, but it was different. I had never seen anything like it before. It was helpful that I was familiar with the story line. It would be difficult to understand King Lear without any words.
