ISC Extends ROMEO & JULIET Through 5/25
Independent Shakespeare Co. (ISC), presenters of the Griffith Park Free Shakespeare Festival, are thrilled to announce that their critically-acclaimed new adaptation of Shakespeare's ROMEO & JULIET, directed by Independent Shakespeare Co.'s Artistic Director Melissa Chalsma is EXTENDING through SUNDAY, MAY 25 at the Independent Shakespeare Co. Studio in the Atwater Crossing Arts + Innovation Complex, 3191 Casitas Ave., #168 in Atwater Village.
The most famous love story of all time gets an athletic and imaginative staging in this new adaptation that incorporates dynamic choreography and visually rich design.

This production features Erika Soto and Nikhil Pai in the title roles.

Gearing up for our free Summer shows in Griffith Park, this extension allows more Shakespeare and ISC fans to enjoy the work prior to our productions of The Taming of the Shrew andTwelfth Night beginning in June!"
