Abstract

In 2006, while I was a high school drama teacher in Miami, Florida, I was approached and asked to direct Miami’s first ever Spanish-language production of Shakespeare in the Park – Romeo y Julieta. The request came to me by way of one of my students, Steven Rodriguez, on behalf of Colleen Stovall, the artistic director of Shakespeare Miami (formerly the Miami Shakespeare Festival). Colleen had been directing Shakespeare in Peacock Park in Coconut Grove, Miami, and had expressed an interest in mounting a Spanish-language production of Romeo and Juliet.
