Spend the summer in Verona - with the story of a lifetime
Why see Romeo and Juliet?
Star-Crossed Lovers Return To Stratford
The Stratford Festival Theatre presents a new production of Shakespeare's tragic love story. With Sam White on directorial duties, escape back to Renaissance Verona, and into the story of two warring families who both pay the ultimate price for their violent feud. A must-see for Shakespeare fans and students, the summer is looking very artistic indeed!
Verona's two-star-crossed lovers must thwart their two respective warring families if they are to be married and reconcile their loved ones. However, the actions of one rash cousin on Juliet's side spurs Romeo into a hasty and deadly action, leading to his exile from Verona. Juliet's family, meanwhile, are unaware of her marriage and have arranged for her to marry the eligible and wealthy Paris; she must take drastic measures to escape this fate. The rash actions of a few key players, bad timing and harsh justice all reverberate throughout the rest of the play, until its ultimately tragic conclusion.
