Romeo and juliet musical

This is a late Romantic-era adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, which for all the similarities in plot, is a quite different story. But it sounds and looks beautiful, and in the context of the Shakespeare 400 Festival, is a welcome exhibition of how the Bard’s place in popular culture has changed over time.

Not many things are as representative of the summer months as beach trips, barbecues, long days and warm nights. Unless you’re at CLU, in which case, the biggest summer highlight is the Kingsmen Shakespeare Festival. The professional Shakespeare company will be staging “Hamlet” and “The Tempest” this summer, two of the playwright’s most well-known tragedies....
