Robeo + Julie22: Act I: Starcrossed Cyborgs + Clones

Two corporations, both alike in tyranny,
In fair Vetropolis, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where cloned blood makes cyborg hands unclean.

A retelling of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, set in the far future when mankind has been conquered by the Escalusians. Robeo, Julie22 and Benvolio embark on a series of misadventures whilst under the heel of their Escalusian Overlords. Robeo and Julie22 are lovers in dangerous times, but Benvolio has loftier goals as he and others seek to overthrow their alien overlords.

In the future the English of the Upper Class Elites has become more flowery and eloquent, with a twofold purpose. The first purpose is so wealthy sycophants can impress their alien overlords, the Escalusians, and in that effort better position themselves above their human peers. The lower classes have followed suit in their efforts, imitating the speech of the rich and famous, and consequently English has evolved into a more flowery version of its former self.
