The Grand Rapids Ballet Company presents Mario Radacovksy’s “Romeo and Juliet” at the Dogwood on March 17! The evening is sold out. This production is a stunning re-imagining of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy of love, sacrifice and loss.
Radacovsky’s ballet centers on the two lovers’ struggle with the social barrier that restricted and insulated them from childhood…and was broken for love.
Set to the lush Prokofiev score, this passionate production contrasts a concept of duality through light and dark and a simplicity of sets and costumes, embracing bright splashes of color to explore the fate of two star crossed lovers.
Celebrating its 40th season, the Grand Rapids Ballet Company remains committed to lifting the human spirit through the art of dance. A proud recipient of the ArtServe Michigan Governor’s Arts Award for Outstanding Cultural Organization, Michigan’s only professional ballet company has a rich history marked by steady growth, a commitment to excellence, and strong community support. Presenting the best in classical and contemporary choreography, the Grand Rapids Ballet remains committed artistic excellence.
