Romeo and Juliet
The Great Russian Ballet invites you to see one of the most popular love stories of all time, “Romeo and Juliet”. Today one of the most accomplished dancers to perform this emotional role of Juliet is Natalia Balan, the prima ballerina for The Great Russian Ballet. She will be joined by our guest-star from the Ukraine National Ballet, Vasili Bogdan, to perform the role of Romeo. They portray the quintessential lovers with youthful charm, emotional depth and masterful technique. The Ballet begins with a feud between the Capulets and the Montagues. Romeo Montague crashes a party at the Capulet house where he meets Juliet Capulet and falls instantly in love with her. On the balcony at night’s end, the two proclaim their eternal love. Hoping to put an end to the family feud, Friar Lawrence secretly marries the couple. Later, Juliet’s cousin Tybalt kills Romeo’s friend Mercutio in a fight. A distraught Romeo kills Tybalt in a fit of revenge, and is sent into exile. Juliet turns to Friar Lawrence for help and he devises a plan: Juliet is to drink a sleeping potion to make her appear dead. When she is buried in the family tomb, Friar Lawrence will tell Romeo the truth and he will rescue her. The news of Juliet’s death reaches Romeo, but not Friar Lawrence’ message. Believing Juliet to be dead, Romeo goes to her, drinks a poison and dies. Juliet awakens to the horror of her dead lover and decides to take her own life. Sporting spectacular new costumes and crackling choreography, this is the Great Russian Ballet. Romeo and Juliet as you’ve never seen before, performed by the most talented artists, will leave you breathless and wanting more!
