The two dignified households, those two star-crossed lovers, and that one famous balcony. Ohio Shakes presents Shakespeare’s classic tale of young romance and dazzling swordplay. This ageless and fresh production is sure to remind us all that Romeo and Juliet is one of Will’s most engaging comedies, right up until that fated moment when tragedy strikes.
In summer 2018, Romeo & Juliet was the best attended show in Ohio Shakespeare’s nearly 20 year history. We bring it back to life indoors this time as only the second Shakespeare title to grace the Henry C. Bishop stage.
Ideal for students and adults alike, this production in unencumbered by concepts or gimmicks, allowing Shakespeare’s words, actions, and story to shine. It is the perfect way to introduce young folks to the Bard, or a refreshing night of unburdened Shakespeare for the seasoned fan.
Important Dates:
Wednesdays: 10am matinees for students
Thursday February 6 is Preview Night ($15 tix)
Saturday February 8 is Free Student Night
Sunday February 9 is Pay What You Will*
Friday February 14 - a special gift at the door for lovers
$5 student tix in Gallery for all shows
Photos of volunteer models from our acting company were taken before auditions and do not necessarily represent the actors in the show.
*PWYW reservations are available in advance in the Gallery (2nd level) and side seating (left and right of stage). If you're hoping for the center section, that is full price in advance online, but the center section does become PWYW on the day of the event at the door, one hour before curtain.
We unfortunately had to make this change because we were seeing an unusually high number of folks reserve PWYW tickets in advance but not attend the show, leaving empty seats and a long waiting list of folks who couldn’t be served. We are trying to make it possible to serve more folks and get a fuller house while still offering the discounted price.
Another difference between online and at the door: online PWYW begins at $5. At the door can be as low as $1. Again, just an effort to make sure more folks get to attend on the day.
