A tale of forbidden love! Croatia’s true and tragic counterpart to Romeo and Juliet is reinvigorated in the town of Kaštela, home to Miljenko and Dobrila. The entire town and its people transport back into the 17th century, see re-enactments of the legendary tale where family dispute stands in the way of love, ending in death. When true love never dies then it’s up to those who are present to help ensure that the memories are not forgotten. Kaštelani (or town folk from the town of Kaštela) have for generations kept this wonderful legend alive which is vindicated by this festival. The opening of the ‘Global Love Museum’ exhibit starts the event, other evenings include a theatrical re-enactment of the story, a children’s entertainment quiz, artistic interpretations, a Baroque music evening in the Parish Church, a musical evening with famous musicians and dramatic artists plus more. So why not step into the shoes of a heartfelt romance?
