The National Operetta and Musical “Ion Dacian” brings back on stage the beloved pop-rock musical “Romeo and Juliet”, after more than 15 years 

The National Operetta and Musical “Ion Dacian” enthusiastically announces the revival of one of the most beloved pop-rock musicals that has been a part of its repertoire:  Romeo and Juliet, the creation of composer Gérard Presgurvic, inspired by the masterpiece of William Shakespeare. After more than 15 years since its premiere on the Bucharest operetta stage, the show returns in the same spectacular mounting, which combines the emotion of a classic story with the energy and modernity of pop-rock music.

The musical Romeo and Juliet had its world premiere on January 19, 2001 in Paris, enjoying a resounding success: over 2 million spectators in a single year, gold, platinum, and diamond records, record sales of albums and DVDs (over 6 million copies), hits that topped the charts for 32 consecutive weeks and the award for the best-selling album of the year. Subsequently, the show has been mounted with the same success in numerous cities around the world, including London, Budapest, Vienna, Moscow, Seoul, Taipei and Montreal.

In Romania, the musical premiered in 2009 on the stage of the National Operetta and Musical Theatre “Ion Dacian”, being among the most beloved productions in the institution's history. At that time, the direction and adaptation based on the original version were signed by KERO, who returns in 2025 to give a new life to this reference production. This year’s revival marks not only the return of an iconic title, but also a presentation in which the past and present intertwine harmoniously. Some of the artists from the original cast return in this mounting, but, in some cases, in different roles from those that made them famous 15 years ago, these changes reflect not only their artistic evolution but also a natural casting appropriate to the age and experience they have today.

The production remains faithful to the vision that transformed this musical into an international phenomenon, preserving the ingenuity and emotional strength that has captivated audiences since its first performance in Romania. At the same time, the passage of time brings an added artistic maturity, and the experience gained over the 15 years is reflected in refined directing details and in the fresh energy of the show. Although the structure and original spirit remain unchanged, the new directorial nuances will enrich this production, offering both loyal spectators and the new generation an intense, vibrant, and profoundly emotional experience.
