Romeo and Juliet

Experience the Shakespearean Tragedy of Heartbreaking Beauty: Romeo and Juliet

The University of Wisconsin - La Crosse Department of Theatre Arts is proud to present the passionate and tragic tale of warring families and young love, Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare.  This timeless masterpiece about civil and domestic strife, a divided community, and the doomed union of star-crossed lovers is a moving, provocative, eternally relevant work of art.  It has been referred to as the greatest love story of all time, or perhaps the most tragic.  Romeo and Juliet will show at 7:30 p.m. on October 11-12 & 17-19 and Sunday matinees at 2:00 p.m. on October 13 & 20 in Toland Theatre, Center for the Arts, on the corner of 16th and Vine Streets.

Set in Verona where the rival houses of Capulet and Montague have had a long-standing feud, Romeo and Juliet is Shakespeare’s famous tragedy of star-crossed lovers, filled with all the passion of young love. Underscored by ingenious wit and astonishing beauty, the play pits the bitterness of resentment against the intensity of romance. The play contains some of Shakespeare’s most beautiful and lyrical love poetry and is perhaps the finest celebration of the joys of young love ever written.
