« You are in Verona, the beautiful Verona, the city where everyone hates each other, we want to leave but we stay. » It was in 2001. The curtains of the Palais des Congrès opened to reveal the image of a city torn apart by conflicts between the Montagues and the Capulets. 25 years later, this beloved show, undoubtedly one of our favorite musicals, is set to make its grand return.

But in the meantime, watch out, ticket sales open this Friday, March 27 at 10 am! And honestly, we can’t think of a better way to declare your love to someone than by getting them tickets...
