The USC Opera presents Bellini’s taut bel canto masterpiece I Capuleti e i Montecchi. Loosely based on Shakespeare’s timeless Romeo and Juliet, Juliet desperately tries to keep the peace and her sanity while Romeo battles his personal demons and Juliet’s father, the bitter Capellio. I Capuleti e i Montecchi is an evening of stunningly beautiful 19th century music based in a production set in contemporary, mafioso Verona.
