Live Broadcast of the Met's ROMEO ET JULIETTE
The USC School of Cinematic Arts and the Metropolitan Opera
invite you to a live broadcast of Romeo et Juliette,
composed by Charles François Gounod
Conducted by Placido Domingo
Starring Anna Netrebko (Juliette), Roberto Alagna (Romeo)
& Nathan Gunn (Mercutio)
Running time is 3 hours, 30 minutes including intermission
Gounod’s ultra-sensual interpretation of Shakespeare is an ideal vehicle for star soprano Anna Netrebko and the remarkable tenor Roberto Alagna, both of whom bring their incandescent appeal to the title roles. The irresistible Nathan Gunn is Mercutio and Plácido Domingo presides on the podium.
Presented in HD and 5.1 sound, live from the Metropolitan Opera in New York.
Norris Cinema Theatre has one of the most technologically advanced digital projection systems in the country.
Admission is free, although we do ask that you RSVP for the event.
