2024 Bus trip to Stratford: Romeo and Juliet!
"DID MY HEART LOVE TILL NOW?"
When two young star-crossed lovers lock eyes across a crowded dance floor, their hearts are forever bound. But can their love survive the brutal blood feud that has torn apart their rival families, the Capulets and Montagues? The greatest love story of all time, Romeo and Juliet has captivated audiences and artists for centuries and provided the inspiration for hundreds of films, ballets, operas, novels and the iconic Broadway musical West Side Story. This production, which features lavish period sets and costumes, is a wonderful introduction to Shakespeare and a welcome return to a beloved story.
Our trip includes round trip bus travel, a box lunch, a touch tour of props and costumes, and full descriptive narration of the performance.
