We’ve already reached the last few shows of “Romeo and Zooliet!”

We’re so thankful to have been part of this groundbreaking show with such great partners. And yes, that includes our puppet friends, too!

Romeo & Zooliet is off to a strong start and we’ve been having a blast hanging out with the St. Louis Shakespeare Festival and Saint Louis Zoo crews! (Plus, a pretty wild cast of puppet animals.)

Tonight, Shakespeare’s most classic characters “come to life” at the one and only Saint Louis Zoo in St. Louis Shakespeare Festival’s “Romeo & Zooliet”!

We’ve been behind the scenes of this production since day one, and are so excited to welcome our first audience this evening. 🌹

It’s the final week of this season’s production of Hamlet with St. Louis Shakespeare Festival. 🎭

As the production team behind the scenes, we’ve seen the show from every (and we mean every) angle. We love these birds-eye views, but we can assure you the performance is even better up close. 💀

Pop quiz time ⏰

Which production are you most excited for?

While we don’t think Shakespeare would say “vibe check,” you passed it if your answer was “both!”

PS, if you catch us side stage quoting and acting like we’re prepping for our big break, no, you didn’t. 👀

“Brevity is the soul of wit,” as Polonius says. In that same spirit, we’ll let these (incredible) photos from phillip_hamer_photography speak for themselves.

To be, or not to be at this season’s St. Louis Shakespeare Festival productions of Hamlet in Forest Park’s Shakespeare Glen? That is the question!

(The answer is you definitely should be.)

It’s opening night! We hope to see you there. 😊

As you can imagine, we’ve been working nonstop since last Friday to keep our friends at St. Louis Shakespeare Festival on track for Opening Night.

But that’s the true “nature” of the business, and the show must go on. We couldn’t do it without the many extra hours put in by our partners in lighting, staging, from Forest Park and from the community at large.

Your dedication to an event that’s close to our hearts, and the hearts of many from all over the area, is truly humbling.

So, to all who have lent a hand, we offer a heartfelt Thank You. We’ll see you next weekend at the opening of Hamlet!

You know it’s festival season when you’re consistently eager to hit the road at 4 AM because you’re ready to contribute to a whole crowd’s worth of great memories that day. (We also really enjoy our coffee, but that’s not the point.)

In case you missed it, tickets are officially on sale for Romeo & Zooliet! It’s been a roaring time seeing this one-of-a-kind show come to life. 🎭

As one of the developers and leading producers of the show, we’re making sure all goes well in the lead-up stages and when it officially goes live!
