Penniless and paralyzed by writer’s block, young Will Shakespeare finds his muse in Viola de Lesseps, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant and passionate lover of poetry and theater. Betrothed to the power- and money-hungry Lord Wessex, Viola surrenders to passion with the playwright, inspiring his famous tale of star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet. But this clever, contemporary stage production of the Oscar-winning film is no tragedy. It’s loaded with laughs — and Easter eggs — for Shakespeare lovers of all ages.
Since 1958, the Colorado Shakespeare Festival has enchanted audiences with world-class theatre on the University of Colorado Boulder campus. This summer, make Shakespeare under the stars your can’t-miss tradition as we return to the beautifully renovated historic Mary Rippon Outdoor Theatre—with complimentary seatbacks for your comfort.
Tickets starting from $31
