I Capuleti e i Montecchi

Opera by Vincenzo Bellini

PromFest’s ninth opera production in 2019 with the prizewinners of Klaudia Taev Competition Abigail Levis (the 1st prize in 2017), Margarita Levchuk (finalist in 2017), and Yury Rostotsky (the 3rd prize in 2015) in the leading roles.
A co-production of PromFest, Kaunas State Musical Theatre, and Endla Theatre.

Julia will soon be married off to the man selected for her by her father but this is not her main concern. Something has been haunting the young woman. From time to time, ghostly images and sounds from the past appear to her, but she can not grasp what could this means. The girl’s father and doctor are doing everything in their power to keep Julia away from his past. She still struggles to make sense of the mystery with her true beloved Romeo by her side. But who is Romeo?
