Classic Repertory Company’s
ROMEO AND JULIET

by William Shakespeare
directed by Clay Hopper

At a slumber party, a group of teenagers struggle to prepare for an examination on Romeo & Juliet. Using only the original text, this zany 90-minute adaptation breathes new life into one of Shakespeare’s most well-known plays.

Classic Repertory Company (CRC) is New Rep’s flagship educational outreach program, bringing theatrical experiences to schools, senior centers, universities, summer camps, and presenting organizations throughout New England. CRC produces streamlined, inventive, original 90-minute adaptations of Shakespeare and classic novels. We seek not only to entertain, but to create a space for critical thinking, risk-taking, conversation, and shared experience. Every performance is accompanied by comprehensive study guides, a pre-show introduction, and a post-show discussion with the actors. We also offer workshops that may be booked alongside the performance, or as a stand-alone experience!
