Players Present Bolshoi Ballet's ROMEO AND JULIET Live From Moscow

The Peterborough Players will screen the Bolshoi Ballet's production of Romeo and Juliet on Sunday, January 21 at 1:00pm.

In Verona, Romeo and Juliet fall madly in love while their respective families, the Montagues and the Capulets, are caught in a bitter rivalry ending in heart-wrenching tragedy... Alexei Ratmansky, former artistic director of the Bolshoi Ballet, stages the company's premiere of his production with dramatic urgency and a fresh re-telling of Shakespeare's beloved classic. His brilliant and detailed adaptation set to Prokofiev's romantic and cinematic score reignites the story of literature's most celebrated star-crossed lovers like no other classical ballet choreographer today.

Runtime is approximately 3 hours with two intermissions.

Single tickets to Bolshoi Ballet screenings are $20. For tickets and information on this and all upcoming productions, call 603-924-7585 and visit www.peterboroughplayers.org. The Peterborough Players is located at 55 Hadley Road in Peterborough, NH.
