Inspired by William Shakespeare’s Romeo and
Juliet, Verona is the story of two young lovers separated
by their rival fraternities. Set in a small college
town wherein young men are groomed for corporate success
in All-American hyper competitive fashion, Verona
presents the fate of star-crossed lovers in a society
that condemns the very nature of their love.
Directed
by Laurie Lynd (BREAKFAST WITH SCOT), Verona features
star actors known from DeGrassi, All My Children,
The Best Years, Paradise Falls, Diary of a Wimpy Kid,
Queer As Folk, and more.
This
post-modern retelling of the greatest love story ever
told brings to light the homophobic/homo-erotic dual
nature of fraternity life, its perks and perils.
VERONA
(The Short) was shot to pave the way for public, private
and corporate interest in a full-length feature currently
in pre-production. The project is one of passion for
all those involved, hoping to present the nature of
love in its truest form. Verona the Short, features
Degrassi stars John Bregar and Shannon Kook-Chun +
Queer as Folk star Dean Armstrong.
Development
and Pre-Production continues to move forward. Check
