Event Description

It's 1593 in London, and sometime player/playwright William Shakespeare is struggling to finish his latest work ‘Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter.’ Disguised as a man (since women are forbidden on the stage), young Viola de Lesseps auditions and wins a leading role in this new play ... and in Will's heart.

Based on the Academy Award-winning film, Shakespeare in Love is an enchanting, hilarious, and romantic telling of the inspiration for Shakespeare's immortal Juliet and the story of undying love he created for her.

Directed by Michelle Leibowitz with Music Direction by Kathryn Denney

Performances: February 14, 15, 21, 22, 28 & March 1 at 8:00 pm and February 16 & 23 at 2:00 pm. For tickets and more information: concord players.org
