Romeo & Juliet 2021 -2022

OZACT presents ROMEO & JULIET, Shakespeare’s greatest tale of love. Shakespeare’s two star-crossed lovers, ROMEO & JULIET, chart their own course for the future at a time where hatred and self-interest are tearing the world apart. In a city of secrets, ROMEO & JULIET meet, and a brief love, cut short by death, is born. Shunning the hate of warring factions, in defiance of their families and in secrecy from their closest friends, the young couple risk all they have to be together, and pay a terrible price for their folly.  

 

OZACT’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic is high-spirited, packed with excitement and comedy, romance and raw emotion, and promises an event to remember! Dust off the folding chairs and join us for some Shakespeare in the Great Outdoors this season.
