Too slow for my taste. And as already mentioned by some others, too heavy performance.

I'm not exactly a professional theater / ballet critic (nor have I seen the rest of this production...) - but doesn't it seem fitting for Romeo & Juliet?

It's like a funeral dirge, heavy & oppressive - like the world that these two star-crossed lovers inhabit; trapped in a world that won't let them be together the way they wish to be.

Admittedly, R&J is my least favorite of Shakespeare's works, but if anything fits this work, it's a somber & heavy atmosphere.

Just my two cents. :o)

This is my favorite song from the ballet.. I wish the female costumes weren't so bottom heavy, its as though they can't move their legs underneath..
