Romeo and Juliet

By William Shakespeare
Directed by Ron Clark

Kimmel Theatre, Fall 2012

"Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona where we lay our scene . . ."

The opening lines of Shakespeare's most beloved story of star crossed lovers are as haunting today as they were when he wrote Romeo and Juliet over 400 years ago. This heartbreaking tale of love, jealousy and misguided parenting still promises to mesmerize audiences today.
