A Love That Defies All

Shakespeare’s most iconic love story comes to life this May with BIG Live’s stunning production of Romeo and Juliet. Prepare to be swept away by the passion, drama, and heartbreak of this timeless classic, set to the breathtaking scores of Prokofiev and Tchaikovsky, brought to life by an extraordinary cast.

Featuring Emilia Bignami as Juliet, Joel Burke as Romeo and Ervin Zagidullin, formerly of the Mariinsky Theatre, as the fiery Tybalt. The production also stars alumni from the English National Ballet, Australian Ballet, Stuttgart Ballet and more. From the grandeur of the Capulet ball to the tragedy of the lovers’ final embrace, this is ballet at its most unforgettable.
