In a universe governed by artificial intelligence (AI), where love is an illusion and nature no longer grows, two star-crossed lovers emerge from opposite ends of society. Remini (Remy) Montablue, a passionate blue-collar worker, and Juliana (Jules) Capugold, a member of the elite royal class, are drawn together despite the rigid class divisions enforced by AI control.Their forbidden love blooms in defiance of a system that seeks to keep them apart, setting the stage for a heart-wrenching revolution driven by love. They face betrayal, sacrifice, and the harsh consequences of their actions. In a world where technology has replaced nature, the question arises: can love truly thrive when nothing else can?Performed in English, this is musical theatre like you’ve never seen before – featuring music by the likes of Chappell Roan, Lady Gaga, ABBA, Queen, Backstreet Boys, Cynthia Erivo, and Bon Jovi alongside hits from fan-favourite musicals like Grease, The Greatest Showman, Wicked, School of Rock, Moulin Rouge!, West Side Story, Hadestown, Heathers, The Prom, & Juliet, Dear Evan Hansen, and Hamilton.With high-tech visuals and dynamic projections that bring the contrast between blue and gold to life, R & J: Love beyond the stars creates a mesmerising, otherworldly experience that explores the power of love in a mechanised, controlled world.***Shakespeare se tydlose tragedie word herverbeel in dié musiekblyspel wat in ’n distopiese wêreld afspeel. In ’n heelal wat deur kunsmatige intelligensie (KI) beheer word, waar liefde ’n valse voorwendsel is en waar tegnologie die natuur vervang het, ontstaan die vraag: kan liefde werklik floreer in ’n plek waar niks anders kan nie?Remini (Remy) Montablue is ’n sukkelende jong werker en Juliana (Jules) Capugold kom uit die elite adelike stand. Ondanks streng maatreëls wat afgedwing word om verskillende klasse te skei, blom hulle liefde. Remy en Jules daag die KI-beheerde orde uit en trotseer opofferings, verraad en strafmaatreëls. R & J: Love Beyond the Stars is gebaseer op ’n oorspronklike verhaal deur Regina Malan, wat ook die regie behartig.
