Hercules

Courage and heart take center stage in Hercules, an original North Pointe Ballet production inspired by the legendary hero of Greek mythology. Audiences of all ages will journey alongside Hercules as he discovers the true meaning of heroism through epic adventures. Featuring Janet Dziak’s dynamic choreography, theatrical storytelling, and larger-than-life characters, this uplifting production celebrates perseverance, belonging, and the strength within us all. NPB’s Hercules blends powerful dancing with moments of humor and heart.

Integrated accessibility elements create a welcoming experience for every audience member, including speech and sign language narration.
