Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare: Jun 1-2:
12:1 pm Sat-Sun
Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written early in the
career of William Shakespeare about two young
star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately
reconcile their feuding families. It was among
Shakespeare's most popular plays during his
lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his
most frequently performed plays. Today, the title
characters are regarded as archetypal young
lovers. Directed by Jeremy Riggs. Open Call
