We hope you enjoy these photos from our passionate production of
"Romeo & Juliet" in September 2014!
Directed by Kristen Penner
Fight Choreographer - Ian Heitzman
Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona where we lay our scene
Rebellious subjects, enemies to peace, Throw your mistempered weapons to the ground, And hear the sentence of your moved prince.
What sadness lengthens Romeo's hours?
Thou wilt fall backward when thou hast more wit; wilt thou not, Jule?
Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, Too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn.
Ah, sirrah, this unlook'd for sport comes well.
If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
See, how she leans her cheeck upon her hand!
Good night, good night! as sweet repose and rest; Come to thy heart as that within my breast!
But my true love is grown to such excess I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so; Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
We talk here in the public haunt of men
I will be deaf to pleading and excuses; Nor tears nor prayers shall purchase out abuses: Therefore use none.
Thou pout'st upon they fortune and thy love: Take heed, take heed, for such die miserable.
The vaulty heaven so high above our heads: I have more care to stay than will to go.
I dreamt my lady came and found me dead-- Strange dream, that gives a dead man leave to think!
There is thy gold, worse poison to men's souls, Doing more murders in this loathsome world, Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell.
These obsequies that I for thee will keep Nightly shall be to strew thy grave and weep.
Wilt thou provoke me? then have at thee, boy!
Why art thou yet so fair?
This letter doth make good the friar's words
