Romeo a Julia by Balet Bratislava

If I did not know a Filipina ballet dancer member of the Balet Bratislava, I would have probably not gone to watch Romeo a Julia last night nor at any other night. In fact I was already heading towards Eurovea because of being used to watching at the Slovak National Theater. But last night it was in Nova Scena, a small quaint theater near the Presidential Palace.

I am not an art critic but what we saw last night was a very modern choreography of Romeo a Julia. We are in awe with the presentation of the story. It was fresh, very fresh, simple but just so beautiful. The dancers are so perfectly graceful and the expressions were just rolled in one great performance. And how they gave it all was seen in the faces of the audiences. Never have we in Bratislava experienced a standing ovation as long and as appreciated as this one. Well deserved!

Happy watching!
