The Northern Ballet Theatre celebrates its 40th anniversary with a revival of its Wuthering Heights production first premiered in 2002:
The Northern Ballet
Wuthering Heights
* Choreography by David Nixon
* Music by Claude-Michel Schönberg

Passionate and obsessive, Cathy and Heathcliff's love is as unruly and dangerous as the Yorkshire moors that surround them:

My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath – a source of little visible delight, but necessary.
Cathy

As children they are inseparable, running wild and free on the moors, but over time their childish affection deepens into an overwhelming love – a devastating force that even death cannot destroy.

Northern Ballet Theatre is one of the UK's leading ballet companies whose dancers' ability to capture the spirit of their characters draws audiences into the story in a way that makes our productions more than just dance.
With an original score by celebrated composer Claude-Michel Schönberg, known for his West End and Broadway hits Les Miserables and Miss Saigon, see this turbulent love story brought to life in Northern Ballet Theatre's adaptation of Emily Brontë's romantic masterpiece.
