Romeo & Juliet

Presented by The Milton G. Bassin Performing Arts Center & York College

York College Theatre continues its 2015-2016 Season of the Spoken Word with Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare, the classic tale of two star-crossed young lovers. Forced to grow up too quickly in a city walled in by ancient hatreds, unyielding families, and self-serving governmental tyrants, it is a story where secrets, pride, passion, revenge, and fate combine to corner the purity of true love in a besieged world with no-way-out.

Featuring: York College Students: Ashlee Alexander, Christopher Allen, Kevin Cauvin, Jose Cruz, Claudia Gregory, Alexis Haynie, Naimul Islam, Jaime Coulter-Jacobs, Kelvin Mata, Jabaree Muhammad, Nkosi Nurse, Rauf Rabbani, Christina Rivera, Diana Ross, Sidney Scott, Turquan Smith, Arline Tejada, and Enrique Valdez; with Guest Artists: Mildred Gil, Taren Hastings-Mangual, Clinton Powell, Marlon Suarez; and York College Alumni: Shatiek Johnson & Solomon Peck.
