About Romeo and Juliet - Ballet

Breathing Life into a Timeless Drama

The reinterpretation of Shakespeare's classic work began in the 1930s in the USSR, a production by Sergei Prokofiev intended for the famed Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow. However, controversy about the ballet's new – and happy – ending, along with other political entanglements, meant that the ballet's first performance was actually at the Mahen Theatre in Brno, in what was then Czechoslovakia. Romeo and Juliet, with its original tragic ending, came to Leningrad in 1940, and soon the classic tale was being performed all over Europe. Throughout the years, many choreographers have reinterpreted this iconic story. But no matter the puppet master pulling the strings, the tragic tale of star-crossed lovers continues to stir hearts around the world with every graceful twirl, leap, and lift. The greatest dancers in the world have brought Romeo and Juliet's love – and demise – to life with just a twist of the hand and the point of a toe.
