Theatre Lunatico presents ROMEO AND JULIET

Two teenagers discover the kind of love that changes their world—but in a world violently polarized the love that eternally binds them might also destroy them. Theatre Lunatico’s Shoebox Shakespeare Series presents ROMEO AND JULIET.

Under the direction of core company member Michael Barr experience the exhilaration and intimacy of live Shakespeare at La Val's Subterranean Theater. Sparks ignite and swords clash as young love blossoms and old hates corrode. Our tender heroes are forced to live on the thrilling edge of passion and danger blurring the lines between both. This ROMEO AND JULIET will be an evening to remember for anyone who’s ever been desperately fiercely in love!

The ensemble cast includes Rachel Brown Devon deGroot Shane Fahy James Paul Gregory Christian Jimenez Shawn Oda Lauri Smith Elana Swartz and Umut Yalcinkaya.
