Story Ballet
Composer: Sergei Prokofiev
Choreographer: Helgi Tomasson
Based on William Shakespeare’s phenomenally crafted tale of star-crossed lovers, Helgi Tomasson’s full-length ballet, Romeo & Juliet, is deep in character and rich in humanity. A luscious, hopelessly romantic tale set to the remarkable score by Sergei Prokofiev, this grand-scale production is unforgettable.
The 1994 world premiere of Romeo & Juliet was made possible by the E.L. Wiegand Foundation. Additional support was provided by Lucy and Fritz Jewett, Chris and Warren Hellman, Mr. Rudolph W. Driscoll, The Benard Osher Foundation, Franklin Templeton Group, and Deloitte.
