Welcome to Shakespeare on the Sound's
17th Season! This season's production of Romeo
and Juliet is conceived to emerge out of a
gathering much like our own – an annual summer
tradition among friends of reading a play together
after dinner. We open our evening of Shakespeare
with a scene from one of my favorite
contemporary writers, Stew, whose words are as
striking and surprising as the score he and Heidi
have composed. It's a thrill to invite you to enjoy
a first in our history - two authors 400 years apart in direct conversation.
Welcome to Shakespeare on the Sound's
17th season of free Shakespeare! Since I've come
onboard as the Executive Director, I've heard so
many extraordinary stories about Shakespeare on
the Sound and its legacy of almost two decades.
This tradition and legacy relies on the
commitment and support of generous donors,
corporations, foundations and individuals like you.
Each dollar you give counts, makes a difference, or
goes to some component of the cost of
presenting year-round programming that is a part
of our mission as a non-profit organizaton.
This frame is directly inspired by all of you and by my own experiences
with the plays. I find that the deeper I go into Shakespeare, the more my view
of the world and of myself is changed: I am overtaken and transformed. With
this idea in mind and with a love for the way Stew and Heidi's music haunts
us after these productions, I sought to capture the way we fall into our night
at Shakespeare on the Sound. As the sun sets and the dinner guests on stage
go deeper into the story, so do we all. William Shakespeare wrote both Romeo and Juliet and Richard ll at age 31,
in an early phase of his career driven by experiments in form. These plays were
revolutionary in bringing poetic writing constructs to the stage for the first
time. Richard ll is Shakespeare’s only dramatic work written almost entirely in
verse. Romeo and Juliet share their love upon meeting by spontaneously
creating a sonnet together – the first sonnet ever to leap off the page and
onto a stage so stunningly. This would have thrilled Shakespeare's audience
as much as a poetry slam or a successful turn of lyric in a song thrills us today.
Contained in Shakespeare’s stories is the very stuff we are made of: our
laughter, our joy, our grief, our wonder and our moral sense. Together we will
conjure one of our culture’s foundational myths, with joy, exuberance, and the
bold sense of adventure that has come to mean summer with Shakespeare on
the Sound. Your donations in the parks contribute not only to our productions, but
our programs in schools, libraries, lectures, our anti-bullying program
launched this past spring, "Speaking Daggers," and the many other
programs that we provide throughout the year in Fairfield County.
We are grateful and pleased you have chosen to be with us here
tonight. Help keep us coming back for years to come as we reach the next
generation and leave them the legacy of a great summer night in our
hometown.
Also, I cannot thank enough the many volunteers that give freely and
generously of their time creating one of the finest professional theatre
companies in the country.
My very best wishes to you and your families!

The Norwalk Land Trust preserves open space in Norwalk, CT.
We hold 27 properties throughout the city of Norwalk
including the 16-acre Farm Creek Preserve at 34 Sammis Street
in Rowayton. Thanks to many of the same patrons as are
enjoying tonight’s performance, we were able to preserve this
important marine estuary property. Today it is a wonderful
place to walk quietly and enjoy.
Norwalk Elementary School’s
4th graders have been using the
Farm Creek Preserve for field
trips for three years. They are
able to reinforce the concepts
learned in the classroom about
tidal estuary ecosystems.
Volunteer field guides lead small
groups all over the Preserve.
Everyone experiences discovery
and wonder firsthand.

Shakespeare on the Sound’s
Romeo and Juliet - A Synopsis
Our production begins at a dinner party of friends, who like
Shakespeare on the Sound’s audience, have an annual tradition of sharing a
play on a summer night. Tony, an architect, and Ali, the hostess, have invited
a group of friends to read a play after dinner. Ali assigns the parts, casting
herself as Juliet and her ex-boyfriend, Will, as Romeo. Much to his dismay,
Tony will play Lord Capulet, Juliet’s father. One by one the party guests find
themselves falling entirely into the story and becoming the characters.
As they begin reading . . .
Romeo and Juliet live in Verona, where their families, the Montagues and
the Capulets, are rivals and create community discord. Romeo, a Montague,
pines over an unrequited love, Rosaline. Romeo and his friends, Benvolio and
Mercutio, decide to go to Capulet’s ball in disguise when he learns that
Rosaline is a guest.
At Capulet’s party, Romeo meets Juliet, Capulet’s daughter and they fall
in love at first sight. Tybalt, Juliet’s fiery cousin, wants to throw Romeo out
of the party, but Capulet stops him.
Romeo and Juliet
Romeo learns of Juliet’s “death” before Friar Lawrence can get word to
him. Romeo buys a poison and goes directly to Juliet. He takes the poison
and dies, just as Juliet wakes. The Friar tries to take her out of the tomb, but
she refuses to go and stabs herself. Upon learning of their deaths, the
families agree to get over their grudge and build golden statues to the young
lovers.
In collaboration with Director Joanna Settle, Stew wrote a scene to
introduce the “frame” of our production. Shakespeare would have called this
frame a “device” to enter into the world of the play and this kind of device
is something Shakespeare frequently used in his own texts to remind the
audience that they were watching a play. The play-within-a play is a common
Shakespearean structure used in Taming of the Shrew, A Midsummer Night’s
Dream, Love’s Labors Lost, Hamlet and Timon of Athens to name a few.
Shakespeare always called attention to the fact that these are actors and the
stage is just a stage because he wanted and needed his audience to use their
imaginations – to imagine the “vasty fields of France,” to accept that even in
death a person’s spirit can demand revenge, to believe that the boy who
played Juliet in 1600 was a beautiful young girl and so on.
Though they have learned that they are the only children of two rival
families, Romeo and Juliet exchange vows of love and plan to marry. Friar
Lawrence, Romeo’s confidant, agrees to help them because he thinks it will
help resolve the long-standing enmity.
Unfortunately, after the clandestine marriage Romeo encounters Tybalt
who wants to fight with Romeo because he crashed Capulet’s party.
Romeo’s friend Mercutio cannot stand to watch Romeo duck out of a fight
and takes on Tybalt himself. When Romeo tries to separate them,Tybalt stabs
Mercutio under Romeo’s arm and Mercutio dies. Romeo kills Tybalt to
revenge Mercutio’s death.
The Prince of Verona decrees that Romeo is banished. Friar Lawrence
advises Romeo and Juliet’s nurse that Romeo should see his new bride, then
go to Mantua and wait for a plan to bring them together. After parting from
Romeo, Juliet learns that her father is planning to have her marry County
Paris in two days, which she refuses to do.
The Friar quickly plots that Juliet should agree to the marriage and take
a cordial that will put her into a sleep that seems like death. Her family will
weep for her, put her in the family tomb and the Friar will send word to
Romeo to come to Juliet at the tomb as she wakes from the slumber and take
her away.

About the Text
about the text
“the purpose of playing… was and is, to hold, as 'twere, the mirror
up to nature; to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image,
and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure.”
– Hamlet, Act 3, Scene ii
Shakespeare rose to prominence quickly in a small circle of playwrights
in the innovative London theater scene of the late 1500’s. A bit of an upstart
in this scene, Shakespeare’s rapidly rising star was to the admiration of some
in that circle, to the chagrin of others. Shakespeare even in his own time was
an iconoclast. The coterie of London playwrights were mostly Oxonians.
Shakespeare was not. Where Marlowe rarely wavered from the dictates of
iambic pentameter, Shakespeare pushed its limits and varied his style within
the form. Most of us who love Shakespeare are familiar with the magnificent
literary elements that have kept his work alive for 400 years. However,
Shakespeare was also a groundbreaking contemporary playwright, writing
new work in the context of the London in which he lived.
Shakespeare was also a business man. As a shareholder in The Globe,
he had an investment in his own popularity. His competition wasn’t just
other theater companies but bear baiting, animal fights, executions, and the
local brothels and bars. On top of his innovative style, he appealed to
popular culture. He referenced contemporary people and events,
incorporated popular music, often used contemporary Elizabethan
costumes, as well as raised the art of playwriting to new heights. This year’s
Romeo and Juliet evokes the spirit of this Shakespeare; Shakespeare the
popular, contemporary playwright. Shakespeare and his theater company
produced for the modern audience of England’s largest metropolis. He
indeed held a “mirror up to [the] nature” of that time and place, he showed
the “body of the time his form and pressure.”
In this Romeo and Juliet, we find another such mirror. This is a 21st
century cast. A cast of recognizable characters we could easily run into at a
cocktail party or perhaps Dean and DeLuca. Eschewing pumpkin pants and
ruff collars, we see clothing that we recognize from our own wardrobes. The
music is modern, catchy and delivered in contemporary voices like those
from our iTunes play lists. The set could easily be lifted from a Connecticut
neighbor’s backyard. The framing device that eases us into the world of
Romeo and Juliet is reminiscent of the framing device that Shakespeare
provides to ease us into The Taming of the Shrew. This production follows
Shakespeare’s lead and pushes beyond the dictates of the traditional form.
Joanna Settle mines Shakespeare’s contemporary popularity of his day
here in Connecticut 400+ years later. Her vision draws on the context of
Shakespeare popularity, to show us a mirror of our own society, in words,
music, set and costume.

Educational Programs
Shakespeare on the Sound
“O, what learning is!” –Romeo and Juliet
In our 2012 Anti-Bullying Program, “Speaking Daggers,” with scenes
from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Romeo and Juliet and The Merchant of Venice,
Shakespeare on the Sound teaching artists communicate Shakespeare’s
theory of empathy and address issues of demeaning language, cyberbullying,
derisive humor and conflict resolution. This program piloted in Spring 2012
at the Carver Center, Norwalk with the support of GE Capital.
Parents and Educators, call 203-299-1300 or email our Director of
Education, Emily Bryan ([email protected]) if you think
your school, community center or library would be interested in “Speaking
Daggers.”
Below, actors perform a scene from A Midsummer Night’s Dream with a
modern cyber-bullying twist to show that humiliation is worsened with
addition of technology. Using a cell phone to record and upload a fight or
embarrassing moment to the internet is particularly hurtful.
