SIDEWALK SCENES
HELD OVER! ROMEO AND JULIET. It’s a lean, mean, clean 75 minute edit of the text, with no comedic embellishment on our part. We’re splashing in the serious end of our work. 
version of Romeo and Juliet headed by the incomparable Rebecca Northan and her troupe of gifted actors will be presented from Aug. 25-30 in the safe reaches of the open spaces of the Bruce Hotel in Stratford, Ont.
