ATC proudly presents a limited engagement of ROMEO AND JULIET, the 'greatest love story ever told,' performed by two of America's premier classical theatre companies for a limited run, November 4-7 at the Herberger Theater Center in Phoenix and November 11-14 at the Temple of Music and Art in Tucson. The New York Times says, 'ROMEO AND JULIET is a play of enormous, reckless passions - clans feud, friends quarrel, and lovers swoon. Here, those passions are met head-on, and with real skill.' The Minneapolis Examiner claims, 'This ROMEO AND JULIET transcends its classic status by portraying its fated lovers as two swept up in a romance that leads from the heart and not from the head. Whatever your age, it's safe to say this production will make you feel equally smitten.' This is a strictly limited engagement of this acclaimed national tour of William Shakespeare's richly poetic tragedy of young love.

The Acorn Shakespeare Ensemble presents the second annual outdoor installment of the company's popular 'Sonnets and Soliloquies' on Monday, September 13 at 5:30 p.m. in Monument Square in Portland (rain date is Thursday, September 16th). The performance begins with table side sonnets, and continues with a sequence of speeches and short scenes from various plays, including 4 selections from Double Falsehood, a play that scholars have recently concluded was a late-period collaboration between Shakespeare and John Fletcher. This performance marks the first time these words will have been spoken in performance in over 200 years! With the help of Gorham-based Transformit, Naked Shakespeare will transform the square into a vibrant performance space through the use of Transformit's signature colorful fabric installations. While members of the public are welcome to watch the performance as they pass through the square after work, there will also be a more formal audience area set aside as a 'beer garden' in which beer and wine and hors d'oeuvres will be served. Speeches and scenes will be introduced by Joe the Actor and Prof. Grand L. O'Quence, reprising their popular appearances from last year. The performance is free with a $10 suggested donation requested to support the work of Naked Shakespeare.
