University of Wyoming actors will perform “The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet” May 13-17 in Lander, Jackson, Casper and Wheatland.
The UW Fine Arts Outreach office, in conjunction with UW’s Department of Theatre and Dance, will launch the inaugural “Shakespeare in a Trunk” tour. Professor John O’Hagan leads the “Shakespeare in a Trunk” program.
“This performance is dynamic and engaging, providing an action-filled Shakespearian production by UW actors,” O’Hagan says. “The project’s goal is to expose Wyoming high school students and community members to Shakespearian text, language and story through performance and workshops.”
All performances are free and open to the public. The performance schedule:

Tuesday, May 14, 7:30 p.m. -- Jackson Hole High School auditorium;
