More details of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.berkshirelinks.com\/shakespeare-and-company-2009-10-season-at-a-glance\/\">Shakespeare and Co.&#8217;s 2009 schedule<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Shakespeare &#038; Company\u2019s non-Equity production of Romeo and Juliet includes a 90-minute cut featuring a seven-member cast, each cast member taking on multiple roles. The focus is on a clear and powerful delivery of Shakespeare\u2019s text. The production is modeled after Shakespeare\u2019s own touring shows, which took to the countryside when the plague shook London and closed down the theatres. <\/p>\n<p>The actors are Paul D\u2019Agostino, Ben Brinton, Kaitlin Henderson, Alyssa Hughlett, Kelley Johnston, Sean Kazarian, Daniel Kurtz. Johnston, Kurtz, D\u2019Agostino and Henderson also will appear in Toad of Toad Hall at the Rose Footprint Theatre this summer, directed by Director in Residence Irina Brook.  Veterans of the New England Tour, Hughlett, Kurtz and D\u2019Agostino also appeared in last year\u2019s wildly popular touring production of A Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream. Hughlett also appeared in S&#038;Co.\u2019s world premiere of The Canterville Ghost last fall, and Brinton played last summer in the world premiere of The Mad Pirate and the Mermaid at S&#038;Co. The costumes are designed by Govane Lohbauer, with sound design by Jonathan Croy, and set construction and design by Ian Guzzone. Original music composed and performed by Marc Scipione.<\/p>\n<h2>Romeo and Juliet &#8211; At a Glance<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Production:   Romeo and Juliet<\/li>\n<li>Theatre: Elayne P.
