Directed by the Public Theater's Associate Artistic Director and Resident Director Saheem Ali, the Public's new Free Shakespeare in the Park production of Shakespeare's enduring classic Romeo and Juliet will mark the first time in nearly 20 years that the iconic star-crossed lovers will captivate Free Shakespeare in the Park audiences. Never was there a story of more woe, or more romance, than the Bard's timeless tale of two young lovers from warring families. As the Montagues and Capulets are torn apart by ideology and simmering violence spills into the streets of the border town of Verona, Romeo and Juliet dare to defy a world determined to keep them apart. In this bold new staging, the play unfolds in English, but Romeo and Juliet speak to one another in Spanish, a language reserved only for their shared world. Featuring Ra'Mya Latiah Aikens and Daniel Bravo Hernndez in the title roles, also featured are Caleb Joshua Eberhardt (Mercutio), Glenn Fleshler (Lord Capulet), Francis Jue (Friar Laurence), Ariyan Kassam (Tybalt), LaChanze (Lady Capulet), Martin K. Lewis (Paris), Zack Lopez Roa (Benvolio), Deirdre O'Connell (Nurse), Jason Manuel Olazbal (Lord Montague), Jessica Pimentel (Escalus), and Mariand Torres (Lady Montague).
