Romeo falls in love with the beautiful young Juliet, but their warring families spell tragedy for the lovers.

A long-simmering animosity between two families of Verona, the Montague's and the Capulet's, has recently boiled over, with members of the rival households brawling in the streets. One night, Romeo, a Montague, crashes a party given by the Capulet's in order to meet up with a young woman called Rosaline, with whom he is infatuated. Thoughts of her vanish from his mind, however, when he catches sight of Juliet, daughter of the head of the Capulet household. Juliet is equally smitten with Romeo, but her father already has other plans for her.

Anna Rose O'Sullivan and Marcelino Sambé star in this 20th-century ballet masterpiece, brought to life by Prokofiev’s ravishing score and Kenneth MacMillan's evocative and detailed choreography.

Amidst the violence, bloodshed, fear and unrest, two teenagers find unexpected relief in each other. But will love be enough to save them from society’s sickness?
