I Capuleti e i Montecchi

Based on the Shakespearian tragedy, I Capuleti e i Montecchi composed by Vincenzo Bellini will be directed by Sebastiano Rolli. The staging of this new production will be by Andrea De Rosa: an assiduous frequenter of twentieth-century theatre, the director will cast his eye over Shakespeare's tragedy as a fine interpreter not only of opera titles but also of prose shows. The co-production will involve not only the theatres of OperaLombardia, but also the Fondazione I Teatri di Reggio Emilia.
