Overview

Inspired by Romeo and Juliet and set to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Melissa Hough’s world premiere Plagued Houses explores themes of love, conflict, and fate through a contemporary choreographic lens. Featuring evocative designs by Emma Kingsbury and lighting by Ben Rawson, this emotionally powerful new ballet reimagines a timeless story for modern audiences.

Plagued Houses is a powerful new ballet by acclaimed choreographer Melissa Hough, drawing inspiration from William Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy Romeo and Juliet. Set to the sweeping and emotionally charged music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, this world premiere explores the destructive forces that divide people, communities, and families, while illuminating the enduring resilience of love and human connection.

Known for her choreographic voice marked by strong classical technique, clean lines, and musical sensitivity, Hough reimagines themes of passion, conflict, loyalty, and fate through a contemporary lens. The ballet examines how inherited divisions and long-standing grievances can shape individual lives, creating barriers that seem impossible to overcome.

Emma Kingsbury’s evocative set and costume designs create a striking visual environment that supports the ballet’s dramatic narrative, while Ben Rawson’s atmospheric lighting enhances its emotional depth and theatrical impact. Together, choreography, music, and design form a compelling artistic statement that is both timeless and urgently relevant.

Rich in emotion and dramatic intensity, Plagued Houses offers a fresh perspective on one of literature’s most enduring stories, transforming familiar themes into a bold new work for today’s audiences.
