Go behind the scenes of a Southern regional theatre company mounting \u201cRomeo and Juliet,\u201d where the real action isn\u2019t always onstage. From box office to backstage, from donor events to dressing rooms, personalities collide, egos bruise, and alliances shift as the production barrels toward opening night. With sharp wit and affectionate insight, this fast-moving comedy captures the beautifully chaotic world of theatre-making, where timing is everything, nothing goes quite as planned and the offstage drama can rival Shakespeare\u2019s own. It\u2019s messy. It\u2019s hilarious. It\u2019s all too real. Run time is approximately 90 minutes.
