One of the most iconic films of the 1990s, Baz Luhrmann's technicolor reimagining brought William Shakespeare's legendary tragedy into the modern age, transplanting The Bard's 16th-century language onto a backdrop of violence on 'Verona Beach'. Coupled with a killer soundtrack supplied by some of the decade's biggest bands, including Radiohead, The Cardigans, Garbage, and more, and a stacked cast comprised of Leo DiCaprio, Claire Danes, John Leguizamo, Paul Rudd, and Harold Perrineau, the story of Juliet and her poor Romeo never looked (or sounded) so good.
Now, to celebrate 30 years, catch the definitive movie as it takes to the road on this epic concert tour, where you'll experience the film on a massive screen, with the electrifying score played live by a talented ensemble of musicians. So grab your angel wings or shiniest knight outfit and get ready to fall in love all over again (just don't take it quite as far!)
A classic both rued and beloved from school age to adulthood, Romeo and Juliet is the story of a pair of young people who, despite the fact that their families, the Montagues and the Capulets, have been rivals for generations, fall deeply in love at first sight. As their love affair plays out, they're drawn to desperate measures to stay together, ultimately uniting their warring clans in grief, as a last-ditch attempt at forever goes tragically awry.
