When it comes to theatre, it's easy to feel like everything has been done before. From shocking audiences to tugging at heartstrings, the medium often struggles to break new ground. So why not take it to the digital realm and embrace the utterly surreal? Enter PBJ - The Musical, a quirky handmade mobile release that reimagines Shakespeare's classic Romeo & Juliet through the lens of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Set to launch on iPhone and iPad on March 26th, PBJ - The Musical offers players the choice to guide the story themselves or let it unfold automatically. The narrative unfolds across ten musical acts, featuring handmade stop-motion animation and amateur Shakespearean voice-acting. Players can drag and drop story elements to create a unique rendition each time, following the journey of star-crossed lovers—a peanut and a strawberry—through this bizarre take on classic theatre.

Quirky doesn't even begin to describe PBJ - The Musical. Your appreciation for this level of eccentricity will likely determine whether you'll enjoy playing it. There's no doubt that a tremendous amount of effort has gone into this upcoming release, and I'm eager to see how it resonates with players when it hits iOS on March 26th.
If you're a fan of musicals, you might be interested to know that PBJ - The Musical isn't the only recent musical game on mobile. Another title, Adventures of a Cat in Space, offers a similarly whimsical experience, this time focusing on a feline astronaut stranded in the cosmos.
