The Upstart Crow Theatre Company presents Romeo & Juliet
May 8 @ 7:30 pm
$24 – $28
This version of Romeo & Juliet will be set in High Society Regency Era America, with a Gender Non-Conforming twist. We beg the question: what if queer people were allowed to exist in high society? What if they were allowed to exist loudly? The Montagues, our richest snobs in society, hate the Capulets, who are struggling to maintain their financial and religious status. Are Romeo and Juliet able to bring their families together in harmony with their love, or will this age-old feud cause the ballroom to become a battlefield?
Thursday, May 1, Thursday, May 8 and Thursday, May 15 are Name-Your-Price-Nights. Seats are available on a first come, first served basis. NO reservations needed & NO ticket needed – just show up at the Carsen Theater for the show. Donations of any amount are accepted in the theater in lieu of purchasing a ticket.
TALKBACK: Saturday 5/17. Stay in the Carsen Theater after the show for an informal conversation with the cast and crew.
