Romeo and Juliet: Beyond Words

Experience the stars of The Royal Ballet, internationally known as the strongest actor-dancers in the world, in this brand-new reimagining of the best-known love story of all time. Set to a unique recording of Sergei Prokofiev's original score, Michael Nunn and William Trevitt restage and direct Sir Kenneth MacMillan's remarkable choreography in an audacious first in contemporary filmmaking. As members of the feuding Capulet and Montague families, Romeo (William Bracewell) and Juliet (Francesca Hayward) should be sworn enemies, but they fall deeply in love and marry in secret. That very day, disastrous circumstances lead Romeo to fight and kill Juliet's cousin Tybalt, setting off a chain of events that culminate in tragedy. (HBO Europe)
