THE SHAKESPEARE INITIATIVE at BRUNDAGE PARK PLAYHOUSE

presents

ROMEO AND JULIET


"A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life"

Shakespeare's enduring tale of love and devotion, deceit and despair, ROMEO AND JULIET confronts each new generation with its passion and force. Two feuding families fight an undeclared war. When love invades the city, it sparks a chain of events with catastrophic consequences.  Emotions run high and violence lies barely beneath the surface in this haunting production which exudes all the action, comedy and poignant romance associated with one of Shakespeare's most accessible and best-loved plays.
