Shakespeare in the Park will present Romeo and Juliet on Wednesday, July 24, 2019 from 6:30 – 8:30pm in Richmond Beach Community Park, 2201 NW 197th St (sometimes known as Library Park).
The timeless story of a whirlwind romance. Spend an evening with star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet.
From first shy glance, to a stolen moment away from disapproving eyes, to whirlwind romance that races to a dire conclusion, two love-struck teenagers risk everything to be together.
Caught between their feuding families, Romeo and Juliet struggle to overcome generations of hatred and build a world where their love can thrive. Twists and tragedy hinder their desire to be together until they decide to take a chance on a daring scheme that hurtles them to their final fate.
Performed by Seattle Shakespeare’s Wooden O cast, featuring an all-female company. The production takes inspiration from Shakespeare’s original casting practice, but with a modern sensibility giving a whole new look at this classic story.
This free program is presented by the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council. Support is provided, in part, by the City of Shoreline, City of Lake Forest Park, and generous members and donors.
