Ballet Ireland is delighted to announce plans to present a brand new production of Romeo & Juliet choreographed by Morgann Runacre-Temple. The production will have its world premiere at the Gaiety Theatre on Tuesday October 19th.
Shakespeare’s tale of the star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet, is one of the greatest love stories of all time. Against a backdrop of ancient feuds and gang warfare, the ill-fated young couple falls instantly and hopelessly in love. But their families are bitter enemies, and in order to be together the two lovers must be prepared to risk everything…
Romeo and Juliet is a dazzling combination of passion and hatred, comedy and high tragedy, making it the perfect vehicle for the talents of choreographer Morgann Runacre-Temple who delighted audiences last year with her adaptation of Cinderella. Don’t miss this innovative and exciting new production of Romeo & Juliet coming to a theatre near you.
