Romeo & Julia
Donlon Dance Company
Choreografy: Marguerite Donlon
Music: Sergej Prokofjew
Premiere: January 2007
Because their families are rancorous enemies, Romeo and Juliet cannot
live their love in the open. They find rooms for tenderness and
encounters, they win friends who help them, but in the end the fate
hits them merciless: their love can find fulfillment only in death. After the success of „Giselle:Reloaded“ Marguerite Donlon deals again
with one of the biggest creation of classical ballet history. The
starting point is Sergej Prokofiew’s feature length music from 1935. For the production „Romeo & Julia“ Marguerite Donlon was nominated
in the category „Choreography“ for the German Theater Award „Der Faust“
in 2007.
