Romeo and Juliet
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep: the more I give to thee
The more I have, for both are infinite.”
In Shakespeare’s timeless romantic tragedy, two ill-fated lovers contend against their rival families. With a modern staging complete with dramatic twists and devastating turns, Romeo and Juliet remains an unforgettable love story.
A Journal of the Plague Year
“Punishing yourself has nothing to do with taking responsibility.”
Mariko, the owner of the Trading Vessel Pago Pago cabaret, tries to manage the destructive effects of a widespread plague on her business. Around her, a woman mistakes a pile of bloodstained bandages for a chicken; a dentist diagnoses a patient with the Milky Way in the back of her mouth; and a man confined to a box employs a professional flyswatter to keep him company. As the unsettling origins of the cabaret are slowly revealed, the politics of war, disease and memory are undeniable. In translation from Japanese, this surreal and striking play is a North American premiere.
