![]() Touchstone Theatre THE ROMEO INITIATIVE By Trina Davies Half romantic comedy and half spy thriller with a tantalizing twist, The Romeo Initiative is based on a real 1970’s program in which East German men were sent to develop long-term relationships with West German secretaries to determine their “perfect man”. "the play has definitely got a seductive hook, digging into one of the hotter chapters of the cold war in Germany . . . August Strindberg wrote that 'love between a man and woman is war' but Davies suggests it is actually a cold war full of anxiety, paranoia and double agents."
