"We are taking several extra steps to assure that this production is accessible to our audience in every way," explains Ritz Artistic Director Bruce Curless. "Some theatre audiences have found Shakespeare's work a little difficult to follow, but his language is romantic and poetic, so we are working extra hard to present this action-packed love story with richly stunning visuals and sound. Our costumes are colorful, we are bringing in a sound designer, text coach, and fight choreographers, just for this show!"
