This tale of star-crossed lovers set in a world of fantasy, whimsy, and imagination combine to make this classic

comedy endlessly fun and appealing. One of The Bard’s most popular works, it is widely performed throughout the

world and now —- in Aurora, Ohio.

music by TOM KITT book & lyrics by BRIAN YORKEY MARC C. HOWARD, director D. KEITH STIVER, music director

WINNER of the TONY AWARD for Best Musical Score! WINNER of the PULITZER PRIZE!

Dad’s an architect. Daughter and son are bright, wise-cracking teens. Mom rushes to pack lunches, pour cereal and cope. On the surface, they’re an all American family,

but their story of love, sympathy and heart, as they struggle to manage normally under the mantle of

Mom’s manic depression, will take audiences warmly into the hearts and minds of each character

in this deeply moving piece of musical theatre.
