Romeo & Juliet - Shakespeare in the Wild

An outdoor staging of Shakespeare’s most iconic love story.
​
In a quiet field on the edge of the city, passion ignites, loyalties are tested, and tragedy unfolds under the open sky.
Shakespeare in the Wild brings Romeo and Juliet to life in a natural setting that enhances the beauty, danger, and urgency of this timeless tale.
​
Bring a picnic, blanket or a lawn chair, bug spray, dress for the weather, and join us for an unforgettable night of classic theatre under the stars.
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Enjoy a magical evening under the stars with us. Shakespeare in the Wild takes place in a meadow, so grab a lawn chair and pack a picnic! Here are some other things we’d suggest bringing along, too:

• bug spray
• sunscreen
• blanket and/or layered clothing
• water
• lawn chair or picnic blanket
• shoes comfortable for walking on dirt and grass

​
WHEN SHOULD I ARRIVE?
Make an event of your trip to Shakespeare in Wild and arrive 30 minutes early! There is a 5-10 minute walk from the parking lot to the performance space, and you’ll also want to use the restroom, stake your claim on a place to sit, and enjoy a picnic and time with friends.
​
WHERE DO I SHOW UP EXACTLY? WHAT ABOUT PARKING?
Shakespeare in the Wild performs in DeKoevend Park, located just behind the Goodson Recreation Center (6315 S University Blvd, Centennial, 80121). Enter by way of the winding Goodson Rec Center Drive. Go past the assisted living center and park in the lot adjacent to the recreation center. There will be greeters in the lot to guide you to the path to our outdoor theatre.
