Romeo and Juliet are coming to town! Opera Holloway returns to St Martin’s Church, Epsom with Bellini’s take on this most famous of love stories. In this touring production, the action of ‘I Capuleti e I Montecchi’ is set in 1950’s Naples against the background of the controlling Mafia and the stifling heat which helped to fan the flames of this tragic romance.
Those who’ve seen Opera Holloway before will know the quality of the singers and the ingenuity of their staging and lighting. The performance is subtitled and is accompanied by a piano and string ensemble conducted by Lewis Gaston.
ENTRY IS FREE WITH A RETIRING COLLECTION
Just come along on the day, take your seat and enjoy the show! There will be a 15-minute interval where refreshments will be served and donations accepted.
