Red Hook Middle School Does Shakespeare (Aired on May 29, 2022)

Published: June 5, 2022, 10:57 a.m.

The Radio Rotary team interviews a half dozen members of the cast of Romeo and Juliet (Or Dating Game Gone Wrong), directed by Emily Haupt, a production of Red Hook\u2019s Linden Avenue Middle School\u2019s. The concept is that a frame story based on television\u2019s Dating Game leads into Shakespeare\u2019s tale of star-crossed lovers. The show was presented on June 4 and 5 in the new, professional auditorium at Red Hook High School. While some of the actors are new to live performances, others, although still in middle school, have been acting for years in camp productions and elsewhere. By double-casting some of the roles, the performance utilized the skills of abut twenty actors as well as other students working behind the scenes.
