Pop-up Opera present The Capulets & Montagues

Experience the most tragic love story of all time. Two star-crossed lovers - Romeo and Juliet - find their worlds ripped apart amongst criminal warfare and bitter resentment, against the backdrop of Italy’s bloody gang rivalry. Witness how their all-consuming passion tries to survive amidst violence, hatred and vicious grievances.

"You talk about vengeance. Is vengeance going to bring your son back to you…"

Bellini's classic bel-canto opera is brought to life in an intense chamber production by the critically acclaimed Pop-Up Opera, sung in Italian with English captions.

Running time 1 hour 45 minutes plus interval
Recommended ages 12+

This production will be especially atmospheric in this Victorian Gothic church setting, which will be very intimate in the round layout we will create here. Complete with a pre-existing balcony, what more could we hope for to see Romeo and Juliet's love story play out?
