After Juliet

By Sharman Macdonald

Directed by Nicole Ricciardi

After Juliet

Petruchio: This feud began not in our father's time

But in our father's father's ...

And yet our young men die

In the service of this fierce fate

Which Rosaline believes gives our lives meaning.

Written by Sharman Macdonald, a well-known playwright and the mother of Keira Knightley, this is a moody, atmospheric play that takes a long hard look at the tense peace that is barely holding between the Montagues and the Capulets following the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Set in a city (could be any city), in an undetermined time in history (or it could be modern), it's a scenario all too familiar to us—a conflict that has raged for many generations and continues to breed hate and resentment that is not easily healed.

There is a cast of fifteen—theatre majors and minors—and a drummer.In ninety minutes, the intriguing answers to many of the unanswered questions of the Bard’s play are played out on the Woods Theatre Stage.
