StarCrossed

StarCrossed, by Sharyn Shipley, unveils the misadventures leading to the tragic vendetta between the Montagues and the Capulets. With bawdy humor and extraordinary consequences, the play relates the adventures of the libertine DiSenna and his passion for his twin sister, Catherine. Catherine, seduced by the thief Capulet, is forced to marry the wealthy Montague. Lives hang in the balance as love, fortune, and honor are risked on the turn of a card, the edge of a sword. A tale of friendships gone awry and unforgivable acts committed in the name of love.

A fresh look at the story behind the ancient feud, Starcrossed takes a hot blooded and wildly romantic perspective on an old tale. Jeffrey Hartgraves directs.
