The Colin McEnroe Show presents — O Romeo (and Juliet): The lasting appeal of Shakespeare’s tragedy
April 29 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EDT | Hartford Stage
Public radio’s most eclectic, eccentric program.
Tackling subjects like Neanderthals, tambourines, handshakes, the Iliad, snacks, ringtones, punk rock, Occam’s razor — you get the idea. Plus, on Fridays, we convene an informal roundtable about the week in culture.
