Juliet’s family want her to marry Paris. She’s young (don’t dwell on it). He’s nice, but odd.
Romeo loves being in love. (He may even love the heartbreak part).
Romeo and Juliet‘s fathers are rival kingpins. You want something you’re not supposed to have in Verona? You get it from Lord Capulet, or Lord Montague. And when you do, you’re picking sides in a blood feud.
Romeo and Juliet meet at a party her father Lord Capulet hosts for his family and friends. Romeo’s not supposed to be there… but everybody’s wearing masks!
There’s also a jealous cousin who loves to hate, a friar who’s a little too in love with chemistry, and a lot of hotheads who love to fight.
And it all comes back to the Bartell Theatre this Friday for three more shows, which we’d love you to see! Tickets still onsale for all performances.
