Through June 9, Bard Summerscape presents Mark Morris’ choreography of the original Prokofiev 1935 interpretation of Romeo and Juliet. Relying on documents discovered by Princeton musicologist Simon Morrison, this production is the first Prokofiev ballet to be performed according to the composer’s instructions. The accompanying American Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Leon Botstein. This unique interpretation holds a happy ending, for the young lovers, and the audience.
