ROMEO AND JULIET
Kenneth MacMillans interpretation of Romeo and Juliets doomed love is one of the greatest examples of 20th-century choreography. This revival by The Royal Ballet brings all the lyrical beauty and touching fluidity of its intimate moments for the two lovers along with the grandeur of the ball scene and the action-packed encounters of the opposing Montagues and Capulets.
Beautifully staged with rich period costumes and designs, Romeo and Juliet will draw you into its intense drama with some of the finest of todays dancers matched to the powerful sounds of Prokofievs famous music. This is a wonderful chance for you to experience one of the enduring tragic tales of all time, a classic of the international ballet repertory and a favourite of Royal Ballet audiences.
