| RRP Filmed on the opening night at the Monte Carlo Opera House in 1996 Jean-Christophe Maillot's interpretation of the classic Shakespeare drama Romeo & Juliet which uses the Prokofiev score downplays the social and political ramifications that most 20th Century choreographers have interpreted in the play and concentrates on the emotional violence inherent in adolescent sexuality. The relationship between these two teenage lovers is doomed as their obsessive love blinds them to the self-destructive road they are on. Torn between contradictory impulses between tenderness and violence fear and pride the lovers are caught in the throes of a tragedy that exemplifies their youth and the extreme emotions and internal conflicts that characterise that period of life.

Thank's to Alonso's interpretation and also to her own choreographic version of Giselle a new order of values was set for this ballet which represents the essence and the apotheosis of the dance from an entire era.

A Midsummer Night's Dream - Pacific Northwest Ballet | DVD | (26/06/2001)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP This performance of George Balanchine's ballet A Midsummer Night's Dream was filmed live at Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, in February 1999 and won the award for "Best Television Realisation of a Stage Production" at IMZ Dance Screen. The music is from Mendelssohn's youthful overture plus later theatre music, and five other pieces by the composer all selected by the great Russian choreographer Balanchine in 1962. In a fine ensemble cast, Paul Gibson as Oberon and Patricia Barker as Titania are suitably aloof, at least until the latter dances with the ass Bottom (Timothy Lynch) in a highlight of touching comedy. After all the quarrelsome entanglements of the first act, the finale ensures celebration and richly deserved happy endings all round. The simple sets have a picturesque charm, the costumes a fairytale glamour and the large cast, including many children, dance with flair and enthusiasm; this is clearly one production where everyone was having a fine time. In fact it is rather more enjoyable than Hollywood's A Midsummer Night's Dream of the same year. Ballet aficionados may also want to explore the BBC's wonderful Coppélia (2000). On the DVD: There are no special features on the disc, but the 12-page booklet is entirely in English and is well presented, offering track and cast lists, a synopsis and notes on Balanchine, Mendelssohn and the creative talents and directors of the Pacific Northwest Ballet. The sound is atmospheric--Dolby Digital 5.0--and the anamorphically enhanced 16:9 image is good, though slightly soft, and does occasionally reveal some compression artefacting. In defiance of regional encoding regulations, not only is this DVD region free, but includes the normal PAL UK television system programme material on one side and on the reverse includes the same content in NTSC format, suitable for American playback. Anyone curious to see if one format is better will find that the UK PAL transfer contains just a little more picture detail. --Gary S Dalkin
