Peak to Peak Players: Romeo and Juliet

Imagine falling in love with your mortal enemy? Now imagine you are a 13-year-old girl trapped in a society dominated by strong men.

Would you risk everything to be with your new love?

This Peak to Peak Players production features the finest young actors from Denver’s metro area, including 17-year-old Grace Pouliot as Juliet and 23-year-old Chris Van Winkle as the lovesick Romeo.

The cast also include Tara Rose Kelso, as Mercutio, and Kate Parkin as Lady Capulet. Parkin and Kelso were seen recently in the critically acclaimed production of Wolves at the Boulder Ensemble Theater Company.

The play will include a cameo appearance by dancers from the Boulder Ballet. They will perform the Colorado premier of Christopher Wheeldon’s “This Bitter Earth.”

Wheeldon, the world’s foremost choreographer, is most recently known for his Tony-award winning “American in Paris” on Broadway.
