‘Romeo & Juliet’ in cinemas on Mother’s Day

San Francisco Ballet’s Romeo & Juliet, a classic portrayal of tragedy and romance, will once again grace the big screen for a special limited run on Mother’s Day weekend – May 12, 13, 15 and 16. In partnership with Screenvision Media, a national leader in cinema advertising, and event cinema innovators KAOS Connect, audiences in select theatres nationwide will experience the passionate choreography by SF Ballet Artistic Director and Principal Choreographer Helgi Tomasson and celebrated score by Sergei Prokofiev as part of Lincoln Center at the Movies: Great American Dance.

This special screening brings to life dazzling performances by two of San Francisco Ballet’s most celebrated principal dancers. Maria Kochetkova gives a magnetic performance as Juliet, and the beloved Davit Karapetyan, who gave his farewell performance in 2017 after more than a decade with the company, shines as her Romeo.
