Chesapeake Shakespeare Co. performs 'Romeo and Juliet' at Patapsco Female Institute

The ill-fated lovers in "Romeo and Juliet" are the victims of a family feud, but at least their love has been immortalized in Shakespeare's tragedy. Their enduring romance holds up in an outdoor production by the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company that fortunately includes an all-important balcony that has been temporarily attached to the stabilized ruins at the Patapsco Female Institute Historic Park in Ellicott City.
