Shakespeare on the Sound Presents ROMEO & JULIET, 6/26-7/29
Shakespeare on the Sound presents ROMEO AND JULIET in Greenwich from June 26-July 8 and in Rowayton from July 18-29.
This year's production is a dinner, with a Shakespearean twist. Shakespeare on the Sound Artistic Director Joanna Settle explains: "We are conceiving Romeo and Juliet as a dinner party among eight friends who have an annual tradition of reading a Shakespeare play on a gorgeous summer's night. Over the course of reading the play, the story will take over and our guests both on-stage and off will find themselves completely consumed over by the momentum and poetry of the events in Shakespeare's classic romance."
Stew and Heidi Rodewald again return to Shakespeare on the Sound to create all-new music and songs for this production. Lyrics will be provided by both Shakespeare and Stew. In addition, this year's production will feature two newly commissioned scenes created for the dinner party which Stew will be writing and developing in process with the show's Acting Company. Also, in a first for Shakespeare on the Sound, the production will premiere in Greenwich and then make its move to Rowayton.
