Leave your cell phones on! Go to our “Road to Verona” Facebook page and join the characters on stage. Post your comments on how to write love letters, “like” characters’ relationship updates, react to Proteus unfriending Valentine, or post your own “dress up like a man” selfie. These juvenile minstrels may need adult supervision on social media. But they don’t need middle-aged Shakespearean actors pretending to be teenagers in love. Energetic, whimsical “Two Gentlemen of Verona-ish” bardiness.
