What if Romeo and Juliet got a second chance? R & J & Z (Romeo and Juliet
and Zombies) begins with Act V of Shakespeare's play, and keeps going as
the famous lovers navigate a world in which death isn't necessarily the end.
Set against the historical backdrop of Verona's plague, the play throws old
and new characters together over the course of an apocalyptic and action- packed 24 hours. Written in verse
and equally inspired by Shakespeare
and modern zombie films, this world premiere play pushes the boundaries
of theatrical humor and horror.
Opera House Arts at the 1912 Stonington Opera House, on the National Register of Historic Places, has been producing live professional and community theater, and first run movies, in the restored Opera House since 2000.
