16 Aug '19

_SHAKESPEARE’S R&J_ -A WILD AND UNRESTRAINED ADAPTATION BY JOE CALARCO- OPENS FRIDAY, AUG 30 AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM Convergence-continuum [1] continues its 2019 Season, “Star-Crossed,” with _SHAKESPEARE’S R&J._ In a repressive Catholic boys' boarding school, four students discover the forbidden text of Shakespeare’s play _Romeo and Juliet _and secretly enact the play, taking turns reading the play aloud. The words and story are thrilling to the boys, and they become swept away in an athletic deluge of adolescent agitation, anxiety, and fierce desires that parallel their own lives. Although they had been taking turns playing all the parts, two of the boys eventually emerge playing Romeo and Juliet exclusively, bringing a whole new dimension to the proceedings. “Hot-blooded ... Wrenching ... pulsates with an adolescent abandon and electricity of which Romeo himself might approve” -The New York Times “A superb adaptation that will open your eyes and ears to the piece as if you were experiencing it with unjaded wonder for the first time.” -The Independent (London) _Shakespeare’s R&J _is directed by convergence-continuum’s Executive Director Cory Molner. Members of the cast are Zach Palumbo, Michael Emery Fox, Joe Soriano and John P. Cox. _Shakespeare’s R&J _opens Friday, Aug 30 and runs Thu-Sat at 8 p.m. through Sept 21 at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd., Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Fri and Sat tickets are $20 general admission, $15 for seniors and $10 for students. Thurs tickets are $15 gen. admission, $12 seniors and $8 students. Tickets and information are available at convergence-continuum.org [2] and 216-687-0074. ------------------------------- Convergence-continuum’s production of _Shakespeare’s R&J _is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
