Social distancing won’t stop the 32-year summer tradition that is Shakespeare in the Park.
This month, Theatre Calgary brings a re-imagined Romeo & Juliet production straight your living room. This version is set in modern-day, post-COVID Calgary, complete with protective masks and characters FaceTime-ing each other.
Lisa Wilton recently spoke with director and co-creator Haysam Kadri about this live virtual production:
This re-imagined version of Romeo & Juliet is streaming as part of Theatre Calgary’s online Shakespeare By the Bow series and is presented in partnership with Hit + Myth and the Shakespeare Company.
The show streams every Wednesday and Saturday at 7 pm Mountain Time through July 18th. Visit the Shakespeare Company for more information.
