Moving, surprising, liberating – one of the most successful German-language musicals of our time.
The multi-award-winning production – including the German Musical Theater Award 2023 for “Best Choreography” and “Best Sound” – impresses with an energetic stage show. Peter Plate, Ulf Leo Sommer, and Joshua Lange provide the moving soundtrack – a musical interplay of rousing pop anthems and quiet ballads that touches the soul. Embedded in an elaborate stage, costume, and lighting design, the result is a visual and emotional experience. In addition, the character of the nurse – with her subtle humor and charm – brings a surprising lightness to the tragic love story. Romeo und Julia – Liebe ist alles is a musical full of contrasts: between drama, humor, and goosebumps.
Tom Neuwirth, performing as Conchita Wurst, takes on the role of the Angel of Death in Romeo und Julia - Liebe ist alles: at six selected performances in Düsseldorf and at every performance in Vienna. He has already played the role across twelve sold-out performances at Berlin's Theater des Westens. Live from 14 to 18 October 2026 at the Capitol Theater Düsseldorf and from 27 January to 7 February 2027 at the MuseumsQuartier Vienna. Tickets are on sale now.
The music for Romeo und Julia - Liebe ist alles comes from Peter Plate and Ulf Leo Sommer, the duo behind Rosenstolz. At the heart of the show is their hit „Liebe ist alles", alongside more than 25 songs written specifically for the musical. From „So kalt der Tod" to the Star Edition: here you can discover how Rosenstolz pop becomes a full evening of musical theatre.
