I have watched McMillan’s version of Romeo and Juliet many times, seeing it first in film theaters in Washington DC., Boston MA, and Albany NY — in the latter city with my wife, children, and my parents. To me it is the most satisfying, artistic, and dramatic version of this ballet ever performed. Of course, with Nureyev and Fonteyn in the lead roles, it had a vast head start. Add to that the modern-yet-classical Prokofiev score, the riveting and intimate choreography of McMillan, supported by the highly competent cast of the Royal Ballet, and you have a ballet masterpiece that will tower and shine throughout the ages.
McMillan’s version of Romeo and Juliet is the most beautiful and satisfying ballet experience I had ever had. I saw it back in the 6Os on film in theaters in Washington DC, Boston MA, and Albany NY, the latter with my wife, children and parents. Of course it had a vast head start with Nureyev and Fonteyn in the leading roles. With the haunting modern-yet-classical musical score of Prokofiev and the riveting and intimate choreography of McMillan, supported by the brilliant Royal Ballet cast, it is a towering ballet experience, even today.
A truly stimulating affaire. From the glorious performances, the sensational costumes, brilliant choreography to the wonderful and long celebrated music by Profofiev, it was a pure delight.
I was on my seat’s edge during the fantastic fight scenes.
