MN Opera's Romeo and Juliet Trailer

In fair Verona, timeless love blooms and family feuds rage.

The Montague and Capulet families have despised each other for generations, but their children only have eyes for each other. Charles Gounod’s evocative score captures Shakespeare’s enduring story of two star-crossed lovers who are willing to sacrifice everything to be together.

Music by Charles Gounod
Lyrics by Jules Barbier & Michel Carré
Original production by Matthew Ozawa
