Should theme match character?

I am doing Juliet Capulet must Die!, which I describe as Romeo & Juliet: The Musical ... with zombies. This will be set in modern day Okinawa. Juliet is Japanese and Romeo is a Military Brat.

I was wondering if there should be an overall style / theme to the music OR should Juliet's songs be more Japanese Pop and Romeo's be more American (Ska/Emo/Prog Rock/Metal (I haven't decided)?
