Upcoming: Romeo and Juliet By William Shakespeare Accidental Shakespeare Co. Streaming May-June 2021 The world's greatest love story, for the world's longest year. Set in Chicago during the COVID-19 pandemic, my fresh, queer, Chicago-based staging of the play explores what it's like to find love and be separated from it amidst a pandemic. My staging intentionally uses Zoom recordings, video art, self-tapes, and socially-distant filming to intentionally tell this iconic story like it's never been seen before. Romeo and Juliet will be released in five weekly episodes starting on May 7, on Accidental Shakespeare Company.s YouTube channel.
