Oddfellows Playhouse Teen Repertory Company 2025, announces auditions for Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet”, directed by ARTFARM Artistic Director Marcella Trowbridge.
“Romeo and Juliet” is a timeless classic that speaks to the tremendous, courageous and tender hearts of teens, to the maddening meddling of families and the conflicts of ‘us and them’, to young love, to grief and delight, to misunderstandings, self harm and how individual choices can ripple through a community.
Sword fighting, Renaissance dance, broken hearts, word-play, balconies, poison, young love- and some of the most beautiful poetry e’er writ’. If you wanna dive deep- join the cast of this Oddfellows/ARTFARM co-production. This is a rare opportunity to work with a seasoned and visionary director of classical work on one of the greatest and most powerful plays in the western canon.
