That the US producers, caught in the Ballet «Romeo and Juliet»? Above all the first-rate music by Prokofiev and dramaturgical basis Shakespeare tragedy. In this composition, in our view, the ingeniously solved not only the theme of love, but the theme of hatred. This most modern of his philosophy. Traditions, conventions, biases and today can be an obstacle to people communicate among themselves, and sometimes lead to tragedy.

For the Ballet Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliet" has been accessed many choreographers, stage history of this work is extensive and interesting. In his work on staging together with the conductor of the performance e. Kolobovym sought to bring Ballet Theatre score composer in its copyright statement. This also applies to the orchestration, and outtakes, and deleted from the score of repeats, contact with her producers and violate its integrity.

Second, what we have tried to work on the show, is a ballet was understandable to viewers without reading the libretto to the viewers empathized with heroes and not unscrambled at the stage settings, not searched for in its memory mappings from the original source. In the drama many narrative passages are explained in the text, we can solve them only by multifaceted choreography, and whether it is to judge the audience.

And one more thing I want to mention. We are convinced that Shakespeare should be put in šekspirovski, while maintaining the style of its juiciness images emotionality. All this dictates the appropriate plug to the performance. As a painter and Sumbatašvili, and in its plastic reading Ballet we prudish compared traditional fathers Capuleti and Montecchi, mundane bytovizm mother and servants and romantic poetry of the main characters.

A big role as full-fledged actor, we give to the people. We want the audience was filled with sympathy to each character, sympathetically treated as to the death of Mercutio and the death of Tybalt "noble", as the suffering of the parents of Romeo and Juliet, and the tragic death of young heroes. They are all, in our opinion, deserve love, everything they could love each other, but militant alienation, weigh the conventions, biases have prevented them from connecting.
