Romeo & Juliet

What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than with the greatest love story of all time? Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy of children who can’t ignore their passions and parents who can’t listen to each other. Romeo and Juliet fall in love as their community falls apart, and like all the youth of Verona, are desperate for mature and loving guidance that is not forthcoming.
