Romeo and Juliet

The world’s greatest love story...

SummaryArtistsPhotosArticlesRelated Events

Summary

The most thrilling Shakespeare festival yet begins with swords clashing, duets danced, oaths of love sworn, and treacherous sleeping potions swallowed — in the greatest love story of all time. The Montague and Capulet families have been feuding for years. When young Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet meet by chance – Shakespeare’s “star-cross’d lovers” defy their entire world to be together, with the help of Juliet’s flighty Nurse and Romeo’s cunning advisor Friar Laurence. This romance of the ages has inspired countless adaptations – from film to opera to Broadway musicals like West Wide Story. Young love has never been so dangerous or delightful – as it is in San Diego’s most romantic theatre venue, our outdoor Festival stage under the stars.
