The LeVays’ relaxing weekend takes a turn as family members clash during conversations about privilege and class and secrets unravel.

Walking with Shakespeare
Saturday, April 22 1-4 pm
Arts on the Green invites you to its 3rd annual “Walking with Shakespeare.” Experience William Shakespeare’s most celebrated plays as they come to life on this unique walking tour.
Celebrate the Bard’s 459th birthday with a stroll through the spring air. Meet traveling minstrels along the way as you travel past scenes from six Shakespearian comedies & tragedies. Each scene lasts approximately 10 minutes, and all pathways are accessible. This program is recommended for ages 12 & older.
Online ticket sales end two hours prior to performance. Patrons are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance as this one day performance often sells out.
Parking for the Walking With Shakespeare event includes handicapped parking near the entry gate, limited street parking, and for the majority of patrons, parking in the gravel surface lot of St. Martin’s Church at the corner of Route 355 & DeSellum Avenue, about a block away.
RLT is presenting Romeo and Juliet 3.2. Juliet (Anastasia Rittenhousesmith) longs for Romeo to come to her. The Nurse (Leena Dev) arrives with the news that Romeo has killed Tybalt and has been banished. Directed by Natalie McManus.
