The gritty story of a woman's bitter revenge.

To mark the 449th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth [April 23rd], an mixed-tribe theatre group is staging Romeo and Juliet, in the tribally-scarred Nigerian city of Jos. Did they stop to consider [especially Salome, a young Muslim woman] what the response would be in this city devastated by violence - and not just violence?
