In this great ballet based on the famous tragedy of the lovers of Verona, all the Shakespearean drama unfolds in the imposing choreography led by Prokofiev's music. The Russian composer managed to write, in the middle of the 20th century, a score with great inventiveness and expressive originality, capable of measuring up to Tchaikovsky's great titles. Sir Kenneth MacMillan's choreography has been a favorite of audiences since its premiere in 1965.
