“These violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die; like fire and powder, which, as they kiss, consume.”

In November, 2021 GRAPA once again performed under the stars in William Shakespeare’s most lamentable tragedy Romeo + Juliet. We set our scene at Griffith Pioneer Park Museum. Violence erupted in the streets of Verona. Amid the bloodshed of an age-old feud, a pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life. For never was a story of more woe, than this of Juliet and her Romeo.

“This show has left a big impression on me. I still think about it. The music and the scenes are still in my head”

“Such tenacity is awesome and timely! Really enjoyed the show, twas fantastic”
