Te Haumihiata Mason has been central to that tradition, translating Troilus and Cressida for a performance at London?s Globe Theatre in 2012 and now taking on Shakespeare?s most beloved romantic tragedy. Love, duels, murders, marriages ? Romeo and Juliet has it all. This te reo Ma?ri translation will bring the play into the heart of Aotearoa...
