Gounod’s Romeo and Juliet

For years their families have been at war, yet at first sight, Romeo and Juliet fall deeply in love. OPERA San Antonio presents Gounod’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. As their romance blooms so does the hatred between their houses, which compels these star-crossed young lovers to choose between their love for each other and love for their families.

Performed in French with English Translations.
