Join The Beacon Theatre as we present our debut production. Romeo & Julian a bold, modern queer retelling of Shakespeare’s classic follows the forbidden love between the sons of two rival religious leaders (one Southern Baptist and one Catholic) in small town Verona, TX, where being gay is the town’s gravest sin. They find refuge in each other and in a found family led by the dazzling drag matriarch Mother Lawrence, who runs a secret queer sanctuary called The Church; this contemporary adaptation preserves much of Shakespeare’s language while updating appearance, themes, and context to deliver a fierce, tender, and visually electric take on a story about love, defiance, and the families we choose.Tickets:
