AB  - Examines the British Council's YouTube production "Star Cross'd: A Contemporary Take on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet" (2016); Warwickshire county's video game "Romeo, wherefore art thou" (2010); and an amateur video game "Romeo and Juliet: The Video Game," in the style of a Japanese role playing game (jrpg). Drawing on critical discourse analysis, contends that these adaptations retain the themes of Shakespeare's original play while adding interactivity and reaching new audiences. English summary, 263.
