Cancelled: Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare

This event has been cancelled to help mitigate the spread of Covid-19.

Verona burns under the summer heat, fueled by the incendiary hatred between two families. Blind hate results in outbursts of deadly violence. The Prince decrees: if a Montague or Capulet again disrupts the peace, death will be the punishment. Against this violent world, Shakespeare sets “Romeo & Juliet,” a miraculous story of love that heals a community through terrible sacrifice and redemptive forgiveness.
