THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, through SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20:

 
 
 
Shakespeare's R&J

Adapted by Joe Calarco
Directed by Rob Ruggiero
 
November 12 - December 20, 2009

Featuring Adam Barrie, TJ Linnard, Ashley Robinson and Paul Terzenbach
 
“Shakespeare's R&J” spins the classic story of history's most famous romance in a modern tale of teenage awakening. The production explores youthful desires, vulnerability and burgeoning sexuality as four schoolboys at a repressive preparatory school discover Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and find themselves suddenly immersed in the tragic story of forbidden love. As the boys assume the roles of all the play's characters, the classic tale begins to blur with the students' own lives and Shakespeare's verse is heard anew.
 
Called "electrifying," "magical," "inspired," and "dreamlike", “Shakespeare's R&J” is Romeo and Juliet as you've never seen it before.
