About Roméo et Juliette:
In Charles Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette, Shakespeare’s star-crossed lovers come to life amid the pageantry and passion of Verona, reimagined through the grand orchestral and theatrical language of French Romantic opera.
At a ball, Roméo and Juliette fall instantly and irrevocably in love, only to discover they belong to rival families locked in a deadly feud. Secretly married in the hope of reconciliation, their brief happiness is undone by violence, prompting a desperate attempt to preserve their love.
With Gounod’s lush score at its heart, Roméo et Juliette unfolds as a celebration of the warmth, passion, and exuberance of young love.
Run Time: 3 hours
Language: French with English supertitles
“A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life,
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife.”
