Commenting on the production, Artistic Director Sergei Bobrov said: "It is always a pleasure to bring the unique traditions of Russian Ballet to British audiences.

"Touring across the UK with a full company of dancers as well as highly skilled musicians is always exciting, for me, it is very special to have the power of a symphony orchestra bringing the choreography to life on stage."

Romeo & Juliet

The Russian State Ballet of Siberia has established itself as one of Russia’s leading ballet companies and has built an international reputation for delivering performances of outstanding quality and depth. The company comprises over 40 dancers and 30 musicians.

For the 2018 season, the Company will merge traditional and digital worlds with an imaginative staging set against an ever-changing colourful backdrop with magical special effects.
