The world’s most famous love story comes to operatic life with
superstars Anna Netrebko and Roberto Alagna playing the star-crossed
young couple. The abandon and ardor of their performances brought
audiences to their feet in both the opera house and in movie theaters.
And the unique, up-close-and-personal camerawork takes the viewer
onstage to witness some of the production’s most memorable images and
sultriest moments as never before.
