Elmwood Cemetery
824 South Dudley StreetDo you know why the Capulets and Montagues are fighting? Nobody else does either. Who must be sacrificed to stop the violence? Shakespeare’s story begins as one of his great comedies but ends in perhaps his gravest tragedy. Laced with sword fights, dancing, timeless poetry, and the world’s most famous young couple, Romeo and Juliet outdoors is a theatrical event not to be missed. Or learned. This production plays without intermission in 90 minutes.
Join us at Elmwood Cemetery for a special Shakespeare in the Cemetery production of Romeo & Juliet by the fine actors of the Tennessee Shakespeare Company. Cost is $15 per person. Food truck will be announced. Bring a lawn chair; picnic baskets are welcome.
