Romeo and Juliet
William Shakespeare
Prior to and during the Olympic Games, vehicle access will be restricted in Paris, so orders may take longer than usual to process.
Set in a city torn apart by feuds and gang warfare, Romeo and Juliet is a dazzling combination of passion and hatred, bawdy comedy and high tragedy.
