Where: 120 Carthage Street, Sanford, NC
When: Thursday, August 4th through Saturday August 6th, 7:30 pm

Ripped apart by the bitter divisions of their parents, Romeo and Juliet will risk everything to be together. The movement from love at first sight to the lovers’ final union in death seems almost inevitable, and yet, this play set in an extraordinary world has become the quintessential story of young love. In part because of its exquisite language, it is easy to respond as if it were about all young lovers.
