A Wild West reimagining of Shakespeare's tragic tale of star-crossed lovers.
This summer, the Globe Theatre transforms into the Wild West for an exciting new production of Shakespeare’s "Romeo and Juliet." An ancient grudge between two sworn enemies erupts in bloodshed when their son and daughter fall in love. Saloon brawls and frenzied parties give way to brutal gunfights and violent retribution as a town divided faces its final frontier. Rough justice stakes a claim on the optimism and vitality of youth in Shakespeare’s shocking tragedy, directed by Globe Associate Artistic Director Sean Holmes.
