Mystic India: The World Tour, A Bollywood Dance Spectacular
Sept. 27-29 | 7:30 p.m. Sept. 29-30 | 2 p.m.
Romeo and Juliet William Shakespeare’s classic tale of starcrossed lovers caught between the world outside the bedroom window and passion as boundless as the sea. Young Romeo and Juliet become fortune’s fools when the war between their families forces them to sacrifice everything for the chance to be together. Generations collide as true love defies family expectations.

Andrew Lippa’s The Wild Party Book, music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa
A steamy prohibition tale, steamrolling and roaring its way across the stage, Andrew Lippa’s The Wild Party was an offBroadway gem that garnered an array of industry accolades, including Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Obie awards. Based on Joseph Moncure March’s 1928 narrative poem of the same name, this darkly brilliant show features one of the most exciting, pulse-racing scores ever written. Decadence and excess are the life of the party in this jazzy 1920s whodunnit. For mature audiences.
Mystic India: The World Tour is an internationallyacclaimed Bollywood dance spectacular combines authentic Indian and modern techniques bringing the streets Mumbai and New York into perfect harmony. Audiences can expect an explosion of colors and energy as they travel on a celebratory journey through Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Punjab and Gujarat, and even through the progression of Bollywood films via a stunning visual display that fuses dance, theatre and spectacular special effects.
