Romeo and Juliet (NDSF 2022)
August 16th though 28th
DeBartolo Performing Arts Center
Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival
One of Shakespeare's most popular and iconic tales, the classic story of star-crossed romance between young lovers still has the power to thrill and move audiences anywhere. Romeo and Juliet explodes the notions of the proper behavior of youth, with a story that could be ripped from today's headlines. As tensions between their families escalate, Romeo and Juliet's secret romance ignites a chain reaction of increasingly dangerous street violence, with the growing unrest threatening to topple an entire city.
The NDSF Professional Company returns to Romeo and Juliet for the first time in eighteen years with a new staging by Chicago-based director Chris Anthony. Tickets on sale now,
Please note that the Opening Night Gala begins at 6 p.m., with the performance beginning at 7:30 p.m. EDT
