The story you know. An experience you’ll never forget.

Few stories echo through time like Romeo and Juliet. John Cranko’s beloved production brings Shakespeare’s tale to life in medieval Verona – a city of wealth, rivalry and danger. Where the innocence of first love threatens to unravel everything.

Richly detailed sets and costumes conjure a world of pageantry – both opulent and intimate – immersing audiences in every moment of joy, defiance and heartbreak in this legendary work.

Whether you’re new to ballet or returning to a beloved tradition, this is an experience to fall head over heels for.

See ballet’s most iconic lovers come vividly alive in this must-see performance.
