About This Event

Scottish Ballet's film 'These Violent Delights' will be screened in Stoke on 24 November 2026. This feature-length film blends dance and cinema in a contemporary retelling of Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, exploring themes of belonging and self-discovery. The film contains flashing lights that may affect those with photosensitive epilepsy.

Having established a name for creating innovative dance on stage, Scottish Ballet’s These Violent Delights is their first major feature-length film. Juliet awakens from a fever dream. How did we get here? The lines between hallucination and memory blur as cinema and dance collide in a kaleidoscopic journey of belonging, defiance, and self-discovery. In this vivid, contemporary re-telling of Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, without words, fate is rewritten on the dancefloor. “A taut, dreamlike reimagining of Shakespeare’s tragedy strips away romance in favour of dread, creating an engrossing and fiercely physical dance film” Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian. This film contains a sequence of flashing lights which might affect customers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
