Cast Creative Edit

You think you know the story of two star-crossed lovers who took their lives… but there is so much more than the title characters and teens in love. There is something bright, attractive, and urgently relevant about this play when fearlessly performed. And that is what you get with Mission Theatre Company’s production of Romeo & Juliet. Mission will put a focus on the unending cycles of violence, at the people it affects, and that violence is NEVER self-contained; violence breeds violence. This production is be ambitious, brave, fast, funny, and relentlessly tragic.

As with Mission’s other classical works directed by Penelope Parsons-Lord, the show turns the Bard’s work on it’s ear. Audiences have loved past productions commenting how they finally understood what was being said and how it made them look at characters in a new light. This 90 minute version will keep you at the edge of your seat.

Do not miss this energetic and engaging cast.
