ROMEO & JULIET
One of the greatest love stories of all time
Touring Ireland 3 Nov - 23 Dec 2017 to 23 theatres.
“…Runacre-Temple taps into a zeitgeist so many other ballet companies desperately want to access right now, making relevant what is often seen as an elitist art form while still honouring its roots.” “Runacre-Temple gets it” The Irish Times
Based on Shakespeare’s tale of the star-crossed lovers, Romeo & 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 hopelessly in love, but their families are bitter enemies. In order to be together the two lovers must be prepared to risk everything.
Ballet Ireland tours throughout Ireland following its hugely successful production of Giselle (2017).
