To celebrate this time of year, the love story that made Verona famous worldwide cannot be missed: Romeo and Juliet, in a contemporary reinterpretation of eternal love where overwhelming passion clashes with the tensions and contradictions of modern society.
Set “in beautiful Verona, which covers with fraternal blood fraternal hands,” the show traverses the iconic moments of the tragedy: from the feast at the Capulet house to the first kiss, from the Balcony to Romeo's banishment, leading to the tragic epilogue, and presents a timeless story, told with a direct and emotional language, close to new generations.
William Shakespeare's work takes on new life in a bilingual adaptation where Juliet's soul becomes the silent and profound guide of the narrative, accompanying the audience through the events.
Designed for an international audience and for young viewers accustomed to contemporary English, the show uses the alternation of languages as an integral part of the experience: a theater that speaks to the present, without barriers.
A show that will capture the hearts of both young and adults.
The initiative is part of the Cultural Olympics of Milan Cortina 2026, the program that promotes Olympic values through culture, heritage, and sport, in anticipation of the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.
