About the Show
This spirited adaptation of Shakespeare's The Two Gentlemen of Verona follows two young men as they journey from a small Midwestern town - rooted in simplicity and tradition - to the alluring promise of California, where dreams are made and shattered in equal measure. The two friends who venture westward confront their inner conflicts as they are seduced by the possibilities of love, success and reinvention.
Grounded in the spirit of exploration, this adaptation captures the quintessential drive for self invention, while acknowledging the costs that often accompany it. It's a fast-paced journey of mistaken identities and misguided affection that will leave you laughing--and questioning what true friendship and love really mean.
The show is suitable for all ages and runs 90 minutes without an intermission.
Location: Red Morton Park, Valota Road side, 1455 Madison Ave, Redwood City
