Shakespearience to Perform Romeo & Juliet

Published: April 8, 2022

College of Western Idaho’s Visiting Artist Series is proud to welcome Idaho Shakespeare Festival’s Shakespearience to campus Thursday, April 14, for their performance of Romeo & Juliet.

Considered one of Shakespeare’s most iconic works, Romeo & Juliet tells the powerfully poetic and tragic tale of love and loss will steal your heart and leave you breathless. Attempting to transcend the hatred of their warring families, two "star-crossed lovers" make the ultimate sacrifice to be together. Can the same passion that stirs our lovers' hearts also fuel forgiveness and healing among their parents? What happens to future generations when a community's civil grievances go unchecked?

Romeo & Juliet

Thursday, April 14


7 – 8 p.m.

Nampa Campus Academic Building, Room 122

The performance is free and open to the public and will be sign interpreted (ASL). Immediately following the performance, plan to stay for the acting workshop beginning at 8 p.m.

CWI’s Visiting Artist Series is made possible thanks to a grant from the Idaho Commission on the Arts, which is supported by the National Endowment for the Arts.
