Hungarian National Ballet Company - Romeo & Juliet I-II act

[Kicsivauvau]

A földekerekség legyönyörűségesebb Mercutioja....imádom!

[soinbhe]

The 'green thing' is Mercutio's imagined fairy Queen Mab - the Shakespeare play has Mercutio delivering a long speech about her as the lads head to the party. This interpretation is so much more exciting than the prissy display of technical perfection that we get in the Covent Garden production.

Who is the choreographer and WHAT is that green 'thing'? The balcony pas looked a little clumsy.

Otherwise, it was fantastic.

@balletnut

The choreographer is Laszlo Seregi

This an incredible production of R+J. I've seen it once in Budapest and hope to go back to see it again soon.

The procession carrying Mercutio I love.The bamboo rod dance great idea,the Balcony Pas'needs beautiful positions,not what I saw here.What stands out in this version is the ambience...Bravo Laszlo!

oh!! I love Romeo&Juliet. It was the first ballet I've seen in a theatre. This was in Seville, last year performed by the Hungarian NBC. It was wonderful!!! ^^
