I am shocked to say Boston Ballet's (that's it from now on I'm calling it "BB") Romeo and Juliet will not be the only ballet performance of this tragic romance to grace the theatre district's Tremont Street in the 2007-2008 ballet season.
The National Russian Ballet Renaissance will be performing none other than Romeo and Juliet April 4 -5 , 2008 at Emerson's Cutler Majestic Theatre.
The information on the Maj Web site states there will be 50 dancers and a 40 piece live orchestra.
Mikhail Schulgin is the artistic director and choreographer for the National Russian Ballet Renaissance and he also happens to be the Ballet Master at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow, Russia.
With music by Sergei Prokofiev, detailed and elaborate costumes and the traditions of the most stern, professional and exquisite ballet countries in the world, this promises to be a good show. It will be interesting to compare and contrast the varied styles between the BB's version and this other performance.
