The production of Romeo and Juliet scheduled for May 15, 16 and 17, will unite the Wood family once more, with Evan as Juliet, father, Ira David Wood III as Capulet, and brother, Ira David Wood IV as Mercuitio and director of this fundraising production of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo and Juliet will be a special engagement for Ms. Wood.
