The Burlington Performing Arts Centre has put together a neat package for those who want to go beyond the dozen roses for Valentine’s Day.
Two events are scheduled for the day that hearts get a nice rub down.
In the Main theatre the National Ballet Theatre of Odessa will perform Romeo and Juliet.
Jazz Affair: Wishes will take place in the Community theatre.
The internationally acclaimed National Ballet Theatre of Odessa, Ukraine, returns to BPAC with this full-scale production, set to the music of Sergey Prokofiev and based on the William Shakespeare classic. Romeo & Juliet is brought to life through astonishingly beautiful choreography featuring 55 of Europe’s brightest ballet starts.
“…full of enchantment with lovely scenery and graceful costumes…” – The New York Times
The Jazz Affair is an evening of 100% a cappella sound from a professional vocal jazz group which unites six unique voices into a colourful and dynamic whole. Their repertoire includes jazz standards from the 40s and 50s by artists like Thelonious Monk, Horace Silver, and Charlie Parker, as well as popular songs from different eras.
“…this a cappella sextet revisits the great standards of jazz with charm and intelligence.” – Le Journal de Montréal
