Ballet Manila Stages the Asian Premiere of Paul Vasterling’s Romeo & Juliet
September 12, 2015Ballet Manila, Events and Workshops, Paul Vasterling’s Romeo & Juliet, Press Release,
Ballet Manila stages the Asian premiere of Paul Vasterling’s
choreography of one of classical ballet’s most popular pieces and the
greatest love story ever told. Vasterling’s version is loosely based on
the modern influences of “The West Side Story” and Franco Zeffirelli’s
famous movie adaptation of Romeo & Juliet; and is set to
Prokofiev’s heartfelt score. Vasterling is the Artistic Director and CEO
of Nashville Ballet USA.
This version of the timeless story of young, tragic love is sure to
enthrall with its highly physical choreography, action-packed fight
scenes, and theatrical nuances.
The show features the Manila Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Maestro Alexander Vikulov of the Mariinsky Theater. Shows are on October 2 & 3, 2015 at 8:00 P.M. and on October 4, 2015 at 3:00 P.M. at the Aliw Theater.
