Hong Kong Ballet reimagines the Shakespearean classic Romeo + Juliet in the vibrant spirit of 1960s Hong Kong. Choreographed by Septime Webre, this piece infuses the timeless tale of fated love with electrifying and nuanced movement. Neon-lit streets, kung fu-inspired action, lively mahjong games, and elegant qipao dresses collide with classical ballet to evoke the nostalgic charm of old Hong Kong cinema. By bridging classical and contemporary, East and West, this reinterpretation received high praise during its 2023 U.S. tour. A familiar love story told in an unfamiliar setting, Romeo + Juliet promises a striking new emotional experience on stage.
