Romeo and Juliet with the PBT Orchestra

A Valentine’s Weekend Event!

The world’s most famous love story is brought to life by PBT in the emotional and timeless saga of Romeo and Juliet. Jean-Christophe Maillot’s version of the ballet takes a fresh approach to Shakespeare’s classic story by focusing on the youthfulness of the characters, and portrays the tragedy from the perspective of the priest, whose good intentions ultimately lead to the demise of the two young, star-crossed lovers. Sergei Prokofiev’s unforgettable music, played by the PBT Orchestra, underscores the beauty and passion of this beloved ballet. Join us for a moving performance full of romance that will reach your heart and soul.
