About

In this new production from the prestigious Opéra Royal de Wallonie-Liège, meet the star-crossed lovers like you haven't seen them before! After the failure of his opera Zaira in 1829, bel canto master Vincenzo Bellini found himself in need of a critical and popular success to restore his good name. With just six weeks before the Carnival season at Venice's famed La Fenice in 1830, he set about creating a new opera (with repurposed music from Zaira) based on Romeo and Juliet — not the Shakespeare play, but the Italian novella from 1554 that had inspired the Bard, with more than a few differences in plot — and found international renown once again with I Capuleti e i Montecchi!
