HK Ballet presents Romeo + Juliet
17 October - 19 October
Ancient grudges between triad families. Passion and tragedy. The iconic balcony scene. Experience the thrill of first love and the drama of warring families in 1960s Hong Kong! Shakespeare’s timeless tale of star-crossed lovers is given a fresh retelling in Septime Webre’s lush Romeo + Juliet.
Accompanied by Prokofiev’s celebrated score, the famous tale is brought to life by Hong Kong Ballet, with captivating dancing, glamorous cheongsams and original choreography incorporating intense street battles and traditional kung fu – plus authentic sets inspired by the cityscape of old HK.
Romeo + Juliet was in high demand during its US tour to New York and North Carolina in 2023, receiving enthusiastic public and critical acclaim.
