Ballet Cymru presents

Romeo a Juliet

  • Show Information

‘From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life.’

Critics’ Circle Award winning company, Ballet Cymru, present an extraordinary adaptation of Shakespeare’s masterpiece Romeo a Juliet.

Intense fighting, passionate duets and universal themes echo through dramatic and lyrical choreography. Exquisite costumes and extraordinary video projections create a world of danger and excitement where two young lovers are caught in an age-old feud.

Romeo a Juliet features choreography from company Directors Darius James OBE and Amy Doughty, and costumes by Georg Meyer-Wiel (www.meyerwiel.com) who has created costumes for some of the world’s leading companies including Rambert Dance Company and Australian Dance Theatre.

‘But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.’


Music by Sergei Prokofiev, by kind permission from Boosey & Hawkes Music Publishers Limited
