First Wednesday Club – Love Bites

Love Bites: The classic tale of Romeo and Juliet rewritten. A retelling of Shakespeare’s famous Rom-Com, with tongue firmly in cheek.

Welcome to Radio Zombie!

Our story is titled, Love Bites…. or, a Tale of ForBitten Love!

You remember the story; the tango of boy meets girl, impulsive love, she’s beautiful beyond even Shakespeare’s words, he’s from the wrong side of the tracks, her family disapproves, and they live forever parted.

Then there’s our couple: Juliette Chapelwood, JULES to her friends, a teenage Human, a respectable, middle-class girl, and most importantly for our story; warm, young, flesh.

Then, there’s young Jules’ Love, ROMANO Collina, apparently also a teenager, a rough boy from the wrong side of the tracks, a dark brooding type, and most importantly for our story; cold, dead, flesh… in fact, a Zombie.

How do our star-crossed lovers create their story?
