Romeo and Juliet

For our Shakespeare Kelowna 2016 season, we presented Romeo and Juliet, our fifth outdoor summer Shakespeare production at the spectacular Okanagan Villa Estate Winery’s open air stage in the heart of East Kelowna’s wine country.

Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two young star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families. It was among Shakespeare’s most popular plays during his lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays. Today, the title characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers.

This production was directed by long-time theatre instructor, producer and director Neal Facey.
