Ring in the New Year with the timeless legend of the "star-crossed lovers." Perhaps Shakespeare's greatest play, it's definitely his most popular, focusing on the blood feud between the Montague and Capulet families and a child of each, Romeo and Juliet, who meet and secretly fall in love. Compelled to hide their true feelings, they surmount many obstacles, but a clash of will and sword between Julia's cousin Tybalt and Romeo's beloved friend Mercutio begins to unravel their dreams. At times humorous, at times heart wrenching, the story is one of hope among ruin, teaching us the pitfalls of harnessing a force as strong as the simple, idealistic devotion of the young.

Theatre Huntsville, formed in 1997 by a merger of The Huntsville Little Theatre (1950-1997) and The Twickenham Repertory Company, Inc. (1979-1997), is a voluntary association, organized under the laws of the State of Alabama as a corporation not for profit. The purpose of Theatre Huntsville is to foster, encourage, strengthen and perpetuate Member and civic interest in the legitimate theater and the dramatic arts, primarily through the production of theatrical performances. We typically present six live theatrical performances at the Von Braun Center Playhouse, as well as smaller programs at various venues in the city and surrounding areas. This includes our popular season extra, Shakespeare on the Mountain, which allows an al fresco outlet for performing works of, or selections from, the Bard as well as other classical authors. Furthermore, Theatre Huntsville endeavors to educate and train its Members, students and other interested members of the community in the areas of acting, direction, sets, lights, sound, make-up, costumes, properties, all other areas of stagecraft, and administrative management of community theater, through discussions, lectures, meetings, workshops, apprenticeships, tutorials, and on-the-job training conducted by members and other qualified personnel.
