One of the greatest love stories ever
told, Shakespeare's classic tragedy about star-crossed lovers in the midst of a
violent family feud has been entertaining audiences for over 400 years. "Romeo
and Juliet" is a play that questions what every generation and every age holds
most dear. The characters
embark on a journey of a life and death, love and hate—themes relevant to the
world today. Features students from JMU's School of Theatre and Dance. Guest
director and adjunct theater faculty member Ingrid De Sanctis collaborated with
a team including JMU alumnus and fight choreographer Casey Kaleba; JMU alumna,
dance faculty member and choreographer Julia Vessey; JMU theater faculty member
and costume designer Rebecca Lustig; and JMU theater faculty member and scenic
designer William Buck.
