The University of Michigan-Flint Department of Theatre and Dance presents

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

Oct 30-Nov 8 • Directed by Janet Haley

WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Romeo and Juliet risk their lives to preserve the beauty of hope they have found with each other…while their families’ ancient grudge rages on with volatile actions of destructive violence in old Verona.

UM-Flint’s Theatre will be transformed in an explosive new way to showcase the passionate action, poetic language, bawdy humor, and electric swordplay of this production’s “violent delights” and “violent ends” for our audiences.

We recommend this production for audiences age 16+ as it contains mature content/language and stage violence.

HOW LONG IS IT?

Running time: Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes.

WHERE IS IT?

The University Theatre is located at the corner of Wallenburg and Kearsley Streets in downtown Flint: 303 E Kearsley Street, Flint, MI 48502.
