ituoiob tour "ONE OF THE YEAR'S 10 BEST." Rex Reed, NEW YORK POST Gary Franklin, KCBS-TV Arthur Knight. HOLLYWOOD REPORTER "HI ROY' SOARS ASA POWKRFUK tation of "Romeo and Juliet" is Debbie Gates. A winning young actress of seemingly limitless range, Gates strikes a near-perfect balance between girlish innocence and smoldering sexuality in her liberated interpretation of Shakespeare's star-crossed heroine. Hers is not the wan, wispy Juliet of so many productions. Gates' free-spirited maiden is instead reminiscent of her modern-day sisters, embracing her new-found womanhood with unbridled eagerness and ready to throw off parental shackles.

She's got stars in her eyes, all right, but there's plenty of fire there, too. In addition to Gates, this Shakespeare Society of America production benefits from the simple period staging of director John Roberts. Coming as it does in the wake of such failed attempts to "contemporize" the play as Des McAnuff's gang-war-themed La Jolla Playhouse version two summers ago and Milton Katselas' current hyperkinetic exercise at the Skylight, Roberts' traditionalism is refreshingly unpretentious. There are, besides, some colorful (if somewhat skimpy-looking) costumes by Janic Tully and Renee Sacks and a couple of stirring sword fights, rousingly choreographed by Jim Dalesandro and Gregg Michaels. This is one classic even the groundlings can enjoy.

Considerably less enjoyable is Romeo himself, played with all-stops-out energy by Vsev Kraw-czeniuk. The actor doesn't so much attend Shakespeare's poetry as attack it, ranting incoherently and flailing about like a man possessed. Krawczeniuk's deficiencies make it all the easier to savor the delicious Gates. In fact, this is very nearly a one -woman show. But not quite.

Kevin" Carr, who excelled as Iago in the Globe's "Othello," here makes a truly diabolical Tybalt, evil incarnate in his outfit of basic black. Best of all is Diana Bellamy, who offers a charmingly dotty variation on that godmother of all wisecracking servant roles, the Nurse. Still, it's Gates who lends the show distinction.

With her open, expressive face suggesting a veritable host of adolescent fantasies and desires, she's the new-found light who breaks through the time-worn window of this "Romeo and Juliet."
