Well what I have below are photographs from the production we did of Romeo and Juliet. Overall it was a wonderful experience and it is probably the show I am the most proud of. They were a rough couple of months but the people who say it seems to love it.

It was also my first co-directorial experience and that was fun. Little to no sleep, long hours, lots of money spent but also the joy of finding new people. My dear friends Kelley came back to play a role and I found two new people, Kevin, who played Romeo, and Mike, who played the Friar, just amazing. Seeing Kevin on stage was mesmerizing. He was so good. And just the nicest guy. Mike also blew us away. The entire cast was incredible. Good times.
