SUPPORT OUR ORGANISATION

Northern Ballet is a charity, which aims to break down barriers to world class ballet. Alongside our artistic work, our Academy and Learning programmes enable people of all ages, means and abilities to take part in dance activities.

We deliver extensive outreach with children and bespoke programmes for wheelchair users, adults with learning disabilities and people affected by Parkinson’s. None of this would be possible without the generous individuals, companies and trusts and foundations who are helping us along the way.

ABOUT "ROMEO & JULIETTE"

The greatest love story ever told is back – as Northern Ballet’s electrifying production returns in spring 2024. In the ultimate tale of forbidden love, two young people risk everything to be together. Adapted by Christopher Gable CBE and Massimo Moricone, Romeo & Juliet is one of Northern Ballet’s most beloved and critically acclaimed productions.

Every leap, every turn, every heartbeat breathes new life into Shakespeare's masterpiece and invites you to rediscover the iconic love story like it’s the very first time. With glorious dancers, eye-catching sets and Prokofiev’s timeless music, this is ballet at its most dramatic, romantic and intense.
