Ballet – Romeo and Juliet:
Elevated to the status of a myth by Shakespeare, the story of Romeo and Juliet had to wait until the 20th century before being brought to life as a ballet, thanks to the music of Sergei Prokofiev, in 1935. In his production, created for the Paris Opera Ballet in 1984, Rudolf Nureyev took this brilliant and energetic score and crafted a sumptuous, particularly cinematic version. His choreography focuses on depicting young Romeo’s transformation into a man, thanks to a passionate Juliet who tragically enters adulthood.
Scenes of balls, youthful provocations and duels set against a magnificently recreated Italian Renaissance backdrop lend substance, depth and power to the passion of the lovers of Verona, caught up in the age-old feuds of their families.
Running time: 2 hours 35 minutes (no interval). Ballet broadcast from the Paris Opera.
