Romeo & Juliet

Sunday, November 2, 1 PM

JCCMW Bendheim Performing Arts Center, 999. Wilmot Road, Scarsdale

In this new interpretation of the classic ballet, the passion and peril of Verona are retold through a multiplicity of voices and perspectives with three different casts: male/female, male/male, and female/female. With breathtaking choreography, an emotive score from Sergei Prokofiev, and fearless storytelling from the dancers of the Jewish Community Center of Mid-Westchester and Hudson Ballet Theatre, this production challenges conventions of classical ballet. It’s a celebration of love in all its forms—achingly beautiful, deeply human, and tragically fleeting. Saturday, November 1, 6:45 PM: Romeo & Julian (male/male) Sunday, November 2, 5 PM: Romy & Juliet (female/female) Tickets can be purchased at ticketleap.events/tickets/jccmw/RJ
