Vialman (The Apothecary’s Story) (reading) @ ACT Contemporary Theatre (Downtown Seattle)

The Apothecary from Romeo and Juliet has lived into the present day, determined to atone for his part in the death of history’s most famous lovers. Encountering a troubled young woman and a guileless young man, the Apothecary contrives to build a modern romantic love that cannot be destroyed — with dangerously emotional results.

Written by Steven Dietz; directed by John Langs. Part of ACT’s New Works Northwest festival.
