    I love the way Sarah uses her eyes to act the different roles. She's a joy to watch as a performer and beautiful dancer, too

    I think I love these rehearsals more than the performances, there’s just something so much simpler; it’s about the dancing and acting, not limited by (amazing) costumes or the distraction of others on stage

  • @avesraggiana
    @avesraggiana Před 8 lety +77

    There's a quicksilver smoothness to Alex Campbell's way of moving that's unmistakeable. And rare as well in male dancers. Steven McRae may have more amplitude in everything he does, like an Aston Martin DB9. Campbell's smoothness of excution on the other hand, is very much his own - like a Bentley Continental.

    Best Mercutio ever. Alex was already good years ago doing the same role at BRB but now even more nuanced... that boyishness combined with the seriousness of the plot... Hope to see it in real life before he gets to do Romeo one day!

    We'll be at the cinema (Silea, Treviso) for the live steaming on 22nd September, and we are so looking forward to it. So this live rehearsal was timely and just wonderful. And so informative. It doesn't hurt that Christopher Saunders, Sarah Lamb and Alexander Campbell are so articulate when giving their thoughts on what they're doing. Might have been nice to hear something from Ryoichi Hirano too, maybe?
    Ballet dancers at this level are amazing. They deserve unqualified respect for their absolute dedication to their art and our entertainment. Bravissimi!

    I had the chance to see the Royal Ballet with Romeo and Juliet here in Taipei 3 years ago. Marianela Nunez danced Juliet on the night I went to. Everyone was great, and so were the sets and costumes.
    But the ballet was almost overwhelming for me: there is so much happening that unless one is already familiar with the choreography, it is almost impossible to take in everything. After seeing this wonderful session, I wish so much to see it again!

  • @noellerobin9896
    @noellerobin9896 Před rokem +1

    Alexander looks so comfortable on stage! Romeo and Juliet were frozen like statues but Alexander was making himself at home! Being comfortable with adjusting and making yourself comfortable in front of a crowd is a gift.

    • @briseboy
      @briseboy Před rokem +2

      It was Juliet and Paris, not Romeo, in the rehearsal. Juliet was originally rather like Miranda - "Oh, strange new world that has such creatures in it" just reaching puberty, but NOT in love with Paris.
      Alexander is indeed more lively and does the choreography so expressively. Rehearsals are piecemeal, and onstage performance for some dancers, differs markedly, profoundly, from rehearsal work. One must look to complete run-through to watch some dancers develop their character.

    I've just taken part in an Insights participatory workshop, Big Sing Christmas Carols, rehearsing then performing them to the accompaniment of a lovely brass ensemble. It was fantastic! Such a privilege to be rehearsed/conducted/accompanied by Lee Reynolds and Tim Anderson. The event was rendered even more convivial by the mulled wine handed round in the short interval between rehearsal and performance. I'm 65 and just debuted at the Royal Opera House! Ha!ha! I'll be back unless barred for over-enthusiasm.

  • @vanessakim6890
    @vanessakim6890 Před 6 lety +1

    i find it so interesting comparing this performance to the one he gave with the Birmingham Royal Ballet. Obviously he was younger then, but it really shows in the character, namely in the death scene when he goes after Tybalt again, in the old video he is a lot wilder with his movements, and when he acts like he’s fine its more class clown than charming. His acting has gotten a lot better also, even if it is out of context :D

    romeo took fatal poison which kills him, juliet wakes up to find him dead, kisses him to try to kill herself, but to no avail so she takes the dagger and kills herself

    And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but He was asleep. And they went and woke Him, saying, "Save us, Lord; we are perishing." And He said to them, "Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?" Then He rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey Him?"

      In this he is Paris, her cousin, who she is not in love with. Just after a moment when she pulls away from his hands running down her arms to her hands, she backs off and turns to Romeo. This, of course is not rehearsed here.
