After all the jokes started flowing, the people behind the production got really mad about it. BBC reported on that side of the story:
The show, which features Spider-Man actor Tom Holland as Romeo, unveiled its full cast last week, including Francesca Amewudah-Rivers as Juliet.
On Friday, the Jamie Lloyd Company said there had been "a barrage of deplorable racial abuse online directed towards a member of our company".
"This must stop," a statement said.
"We are working with a remarkable group of artists. We insist that they are free to create work without facing online harassment.
"We will continue to support and protect everyone in our company at all costs. Any abuse will not be tolerated and will be reported.
"Bullying and harassment have no place online, in our industry or in our wider communities."
