Movie Review: Royal Ballet Production of Prokofiev's Rome and Juliet
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw a broadcast of Romeo and Juliet by the Royal Ballet during the holidays while I was in Belgium, on either a Belgian or Dutch TV channel. They explained that the choreography was the same it has been for years. It was phenomenal. So I looked for and found this DVD. This recording is from more than 20 years ago but it is very good. Juliet is outstanding. The costumes are more traditional than in the 2008 broadcast. This DVD is highly recommended

Summary of Prokofiev - Romeo and Juliet / Ferri, Eagling, Jefferies, Drew, Hosking, Macmillan, Lawrence, Royal Ballet
Sir Kenneth MacMillan's Romeo and Juliet has long been one of the greatest successes in The Royal Ballet repertoire, winning worldwide acclaim as an impassioned and thrilling view of Shakespeare's tragedy and of Prokofiev's glorious score. His sensual choreography poignantly captures the conflict between blossoming love and cankerous revenge. Romeo and Juliet calls upon the full forces of a great company of dance-actors to present the street fights of the feuding Capulets and Montagues in renaissance Verona, and also to convey the splendour of such scenes as the Capulet ball. It also requires a ballerina and a premier danseur able to express the raptures and despair that mark the young lovers' tragedy. In Alessandra Ferri and Wayne Eagling the roles are lived with tremendous intensity, whether soaring during the balcony pas de deux or caught in the last agonizing moments in the Capulet vault.Art House & International DVD Video
