The Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival opens its 2000-2001 season with William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." Tazewell Thompson directs the play.

"For me. Romeo and Juliet is a simple love story that is passionate and explosive - and the poetry of the play truly captures the juicy, hot Italian world of Verona. Exploring this volcanic story in the intimacy of the Festivals theatre space will enhance the tremendous passion I hope to pull from this combustible play,'' Thompson said. -

"Rome. and Juliet" performances begin October 11 and run through November 19,2000 at 2111 Sansom Street. "Free Willy" is another play that begins at the Sansom theatre on October 13. 2000. Regular performance times are Wednesday at 7 p.m., Thursday- Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Ticket prices are $22 general admission and $ I 5 for seniors and students. Group rates are available. Call The Philadelphia Festival Box Office at 215-496-8001 for more information.
