A Love Insight - Roméo et Juliette not only is an  opera performance but also a dynamic, real-life learning opportunity from behind the scenes to the stage. Before each act, a narrator will introduce the historical background, stage setting and other highlights including iconic songs and music. To let audiences see the backstage operation first-hand, the curtain will be raised during scene changes so that they can understand the scene set-up process. Various pre-performance tasks such as costume preparation and rehearsals will also be shown, documented in a multimedia presentation.

A companion piece (featuring local artists in the main roles) to the full version of Roméo et Juliette, one of Gounod’s best-loved operas, which plays at the same venue from 27 to 29 May - details at www.operahongkong.org
