The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Death and Delight brings together exceptional live music with bold dancing in its retelling of two of Shakespeare’s classic stories. A double bill of Prokofiev’s suite from Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, set to Mendelssohn’s score, create an unforgettable evening of dance theater.

BodyVox’s original brand of dance will capture the timeless power of Shakespeare’s beloved story of tragedy and love with Romeo and Juliet. A Midsummer Night’s Dream will have you all dancing in the garden of delight, as four lovers are led on a merry chase through the woods spirited hip hop fairies, misguided romance and gender-bending role playing. A perfectly balanced evening of Shakespeare’s tragedy and comedy, gorgeous dance, beautiful music and BodyVox.
