Romeo & Juliet
Written by William Shakespeare

Show Runs from February 21 - March 10, 2019
MPC Theatre presents an exciting new adaptation of Shakespeare's tale of teenage romance, passion and violence. Juxtaposed between Elizabethan and modern times, this bold new rendition explores gender politics and identity, sexual agency, familial loyalty, and the intoxicating, dangerous beauty of love at first sight. Featuring a prominently LGBTQ+ cast made up of professionals, community members, and MPC Theatre Arts students, this production celebrates Shakespeare's intent while embracing the universality of this classic, timeless tragedy.
