Roméo et Juliette
Friday, August 21st at 7:00 PM and Sunday, August 23rd at 3:00 PM at The Eccles Center
To conclude the summer, Park City Opera presents Gounod’s take on Shakespeare’s classic tale, Roméo et Juliette at the Eccles Center in Park City. Arrive early to explore displays of art, history, and themed concessions that set the scene for Roméo et Juliette, and stay after for a Q&A with the artists and creative team. The performance will run 2 hours and 45 minutes, with one 15-minute intermission.
With Gounod’s lush score at its heart, Roméo et Juliette unfolds as a celebration of the warmth, passion, and exuberance of young love. In addition to our cast, our performances of Roméo et Juliette will be joined by a twelve-voice chorus and Gounod’s original orchestration, realized by an orchestra of forty players.
