Royal Ballet: Romeo & Juliet

This a big deal for the dance world. The Royal Ballet becomes the first major ballet company to perform in a UK arena with four shows at the O2. Star principals Carlos Acosta, Tamara Rojo, Alina Cojocaru, Johan Kobborg, Mara Galeazzi and Edward Watson will perform the roles of star-cross'd lovers Romeo and Juliet in Kenneth MacMillan's version of the Shakespeare classic. The show will include a filmed introduction, outlining the coming action, as well as giant live-relay screens.
