I have seen previous R&J plays but this performance and the interpretation was very very good. The ballet was fantastic and the emotions of the characters were brilliantly enacted. The anger, the hurt and the great love between R&J came over so well. Brilliant brilliant brilliant!!

It was a really brilliant adaptation of a classic romance, brought up-to date by Ballet Ireland. It was so cool the way they set it in a high school, fight scenes really well choreographed, and the love scenes very touching. Once you got used to the minimalist staging and just let the dance take over, you were sucked in. Bravo!

i loved this ballet, it was young and the movemets were so smooth and graceful, it was a pure joy to watch. The actions on stage were more than enough to tell the tragic love story that is Romeo and Juliet. just beautiful. Well done all,

I really enjoyed this, it was very interesting. I found the first act/part quite confusing, but at least it kept me watching! Sets were minimalist and you really had to use your imagination... The dancing was beautiful and there were plenty of roles for the boys too, which was good to see. It's just great to see ballet in Ireland!

The dancing was brilliant. This was my first ballet and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. However I was really disappointed that the music was not live.

Ballet Ireland's production of Romeo and Juliet was spellbounding! A wonderful night, if a little pricy, making it less accessible to those who might like to try out but are not prepared to fork out approximately €50 and find it was not to their taste. But for me, I'm looking forward to their next production. I'm hooked.

This was a modern version of the ballet Romeo and Juliet, set as a school play. I thought the story was good overall, though I am a traditionalist. The costumes were modern, fine. The dancing was outstanding. I have to say I was pleaseantly surprised and impressed, having seen more established companies such as English National Ballet and Russian ballet - not dance as well as this company. The only criticism I would have, is that there was no orchestra, something I have never experienced before at a ballet performance, maybe this is unique to Ireland?

Favourite moment: Some good "fighting" through ballet. And the ability to convey future plans through ballet was also well done. @

For a lay-person like me, the dancers were definitely skilled enough to impress. I enjoyed and marvelled at their controlled limbs and elegance. I could not fault their acting; in fact I couldn't fault the dancers on much and I enjoyed the choreography . However, the costumes were tired (there's a ball - make me believe it!) and somewhat confused as to which era they belonged, the set - despite it's attempt to present itself as versatile and arty - was dull, and the attempt to merge modern day into traditional R&J was clumsy, boring and completely unnecessary. What was the reason for this? If I want "classic ballet" I wil choose something like "Romeo and Juliet"; if I want something a bit funkier I'll choose "West Side Story"; if I want modern (which I don't) I'll find that too. What I don't want is a confused mix which doesn't know what century it's in. Keep the dancers, scrap the designers and directors!
