Romeo and Juliet is perhaps the greatest—and certainly the most famous—love story of all time. Supported by the National Endowment for the Arts “Shakespeare in American Communities” initiative, Chicago Shakespeare Theater—one of the premiere theater institutions in America—presents a fully-mounted production of this classic, enriched by student workshops and audience discussions. Award-winning director Gary Griffin brings Romeo and Juliet to the Wabash stage with a theater company the London Independent calls “one of the best Shakespeare companies on a continent dotted with them.”
