Romeo & Juliet

The National Players, America’s longest running professional touring theatre company, will kick off their 64th season with a performance of Shakespeare’s “Romeo & Juliet”

“Romeo & Juliet” is Shakespeare’s most enduring tale, and this version is re-imagined, re-invigorated, and irresistibly visceral. This production is National Players at its best – fresh and contemporary. A classic story made necessary yet again; the dreadful inevitability; the aching need; the discovery of a mutual destiny…this rendering of star crossed lovers set to the pulsing rhythms of contemporary digital society, where everything is shared and nothing connects, takes the play back to its source, while bringing it vividly into the here and now.
