New Repertory Theatre and Queen Mab Productions Present #ROMEOJULIET

New Repertory Theatre and Queen Mab Productions present #RomeoJuliet, a raw and relevant 2-person interpretation of Shakespeare's classic Romeo & Juliet, directed by Benjamin Evett and starring Diana Lobontiu and Sharmarke Yusuf. Considering our shared experiences of 2020, this production examines deeply the play's themes of isolation, separation, and what sacrifices we make as we attempt to cross boundaries. The performance will be available to view March 15 - June 15, 2021 for school and group organizations only. More information about #RomeoJuliet can be found at https://www.newrep.org/productions/romeojuliet/

"#RomeoJuliet give us an opportunity to safely engage with schools, as well as interact with our community and artists, while providing a unique theatre experience in the virtual classroom."
