The epic story of Romeo and Juliet inspires artistic creation on multiple levels. Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre provides dance audiences with the world-renowned choreographic talents of Jean-Christophe Maillot in his contemporary interpretation hailed as ”one of the most beautiful ballets from Shakespeare’s masterpiece that can be seen today.” (Scénes Magazine)

The physicality and emotion of PBT’s World Class Dancers tell the timeless tale of tragic love set to Sergei Prokofiev’s glorious and powerful score in this dynamic Pittsburgh Premiere. The wheel of fate for the two star-crossed lovers from Verona is set in motion against a modern, abstract set with exquisite monochromatic costumes and sleek lighting.

Classic yet contemporary–Roméo et Juliette is an unforgettable dance experience.
