Shakespeare Opera Theatre brings you another unforgettable afternoon or evening of classical performing arts on an intimate scale with Romeo and Juliet. Revisit the iconic story and share it with loved ones who might be experiencing it for the first time. Two young lovers challenge deadly family rivalries, confronting feelings of hope and heartbreak in their search for connection. Combining the power of Charles Gounod’s French opera with the intensity of Shakespeare’s play in English (with English supertitles to keep you in step with every moment), this performance delivers heart-stopping excitement and beauty at every turn.
Our general admission table seating (starting 30 minutes before the performance) ensconces you in the action. Complement the evening with a scrumptious selection of French and Italian-inspired food and drink, available before and during the show.
