Romeo & Juliet...


What could be more fitting than to bring "Romeo & Juliet" to New Bern for the 10th anniversary of the Carolinian Shakespeare Festival. This play is certainly a favorite incorporating comedy, drama, action and of course, romance. The actors were chosen from more than 200 auditions from New Bern and New York.
You can enjoy the play from July 31st through August 17th at the New Bern Civic Theatre. Tickets start at $18 for adults and $5 for students. For more information, you can visit the Carolinian Shakespeare Festival's web site at http://www.csfest.net/
As a side note, I met the director, Mary McGinley, last night at a painting class. Mary is full of enthusiasm for how well the show is doing and the enthusiasm of the audience....don't miss it!
