With one of the most recognizable titles in the world, Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet is often obscured by its own renown. 'It's the play we all think we know,' says Patrick Mulcahy, PSF producing artistic director. 'We see a few productions that often fail to measure up to the play itself, maybe the Zefferilli film, and we think we're done with Romeo & Juliet,' he says. Yet, even after performing in three professional productions and teaching the play for 20 years, Mulcahy found himself surprised during auditions four months ago. 'There were a few moments where I heard lines I had never heard before, or got an insight from something an actor did that was new to me.

The Walnut Street Theatre will close its production of Noël Coward's FALLEN ANGELS on May 2nd. Champagne, romance and laughter are on the menu in this prime example of English comedy. The production will feature performances from Susan Riley Stevens, Karen Peakes, Bill Van Horn, Greg Wood, Dan Olmstead and Jennie Eisenhower.

Noel Coward's 1925 play, Fallen Angels, is still very much alive at the Walnut Street Theater. While they may be dressed in period fashion, main characters Jane and Julia would very easily fit into modern categories like 'frenemies' and desperate housewives. The three acts follow their antics spurred by jealousy, desire, assumptions and a whole lot of alcohol as they await his arrival.

The Walnut Street Theatre continues its landmark 201st season with Noël Coward's FALLEN ANGELS.
