“This R & J is fresh and vibrant. The old story loses none of its power and, indeed, gains a more immediate relevance. I loved it.” — Paul Myrvold, Theatre Notes

Topanga Messenger
“FRESH AND AUTHENTIC… The first act is often funny and ribald, just barely setting us up for the tragic ending… reminds us that prejudice and hatred continue to be prevalent forces in the world.” — Justin Biel, Topanga Messenger
