Shakespeare’s tragic love story Romeo and Juliet will be presented as an open-captioned performance on Saturday, April 22 at 2 pm, featuring the cast of the Northeast Regional Tour of Shakespeare.

Ideal for audience members with hearing disabilities, open captioning features a large projection screen above the stage, displaying the text the actors are reciting via “super captions.” This performance features the cast of the 2023 Northeast Regional Tour of Shakespeare, currently touring Romeo and Juliet across New England, New York, and Pennsylvania. The open-captioned performance and a sensory-friendly performance staged in March have been generously supported by a grant from the GKV Foundation.

The Northeast Regional Tour of Shakespeare’s production of Romeo and Juliet is part of Shakespeare in American Communities, a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.
