When he picks her up, she looks like she is flying. She really embodies how young Juliet actually was through her movements. The chemistry between the two seems so real, especially when they kiss. Wonderful, wonderful performance.
two of the most talented humans on the planet, Its so sad that thier career has been crulley interupted by this horrible state of affairs. they are 2 of the most gifted dancers around at the moment.
i don't think I've ever watched a pas de deux and felt so much romantic chemistry or tension between the two partners. they're so wonderful together it hurts.
I said that to myself when I watched this video yesterday and now, I'm watching it again :-) , they're really special together, unique couple¡¡¡ and Yasmine is absolutely divine , her technique is superb , magnificent, and the beauty of her dancing is really a joy to watch , what a beautiful ballerina ¡¡
For everyone who regrets not starting ballet at a young age: when I was 7 I started ballet but I didn’t know anyone in my classes and I couldn’t take part to the final show of my dance school because my grandma died right before it, so I quit dance. It was the worst decision I’ve ever made. At 11 I started watching lots of ballet videos on TH-cam and I wanted to go back dancing, but my friends made me think that it was too late, also because the other girls of my age already started to do pointe work. Last year at 14 I decided that nothing couldn’t let me down again so I enrolled in the school where I used to go when I was 7. I’m so happy, of course it was a bit hard at first, but I worked hard and after 5 months I started doing basic pointe works. After one year I can say that ballet is one of my biggest passions, of course I won’t become a professional dancer but I’m doing what I like and that’s what really matters. I’ve also made lots of new friends who immediately welcomed and helped me. So don’t be scared and do whatever you like! 💗 Update: now I’m 17 and I am more and more in love with dancing. I am so happy of my improvements and I know my hard work will be repaid!
Our stories are so similar, damn. I started ballet when I was around 8, my grandma used to take me. When my grandma passed away, I stopped going because I didn’t feel it was the same. That was when I was 11. I’ve just recently got back into dance, contemporary, but I’m thinking of starting ballet again. I’m 16.
I'm 17 too, I started dancing last year, I really want to go further, but it's hard to find time, but dude, if you want to do it, go for it, it can't hurt more than the regret knowing you could have done something but you didn't try
Some of the best artists, athletes, and great minds didn't start learning their trade until they were much older than 17. It is never too late to do something important, and if you strive for something with all of your heart, might, mind, and strength there is nothing you cant accomplish.
This was so intimate, so passionate. The story they were telling seemed so real that I felt as though I was invading a lover's privacy simply by watching--and yet I couldn't pry my eyes away! :, ) Ballet is powerful. No amount of words can outdo the all-encompassing speech that is movement--that is bodily expression. MY SOUL IS EXPLODING.
We were there that night and at the moment of the kiss there was a group sigh all around the auditorium. Such a magical experience, such wonderful dancers and so perfect to think that it was seen by a huge audience everywhere watching Big screens
Their acting is wonderful. And that kiss in the end, the way she just disappears in that innocent but satisfied and happy way... oh my. When you consider how their story goes on, it's really heartbreaking to see them this happy and fulfilled
I admire Ballet dancers... they're athletes as well as actors. It must be hard not to crack a smile when they have to kiss too. Especially here, it was a almost a makeout session
I have a ballerina friend, quite a beautiful, well known dancer, who had to stop her career. When she went (?) 'en point' and would spin on one toe, she would release violent farts, even heard over the orchestra. She would be in tears, but the public would be hysterically laughing. So sad and awful for her.
I feel like the duo's love ends up maturing so fast in this ballet. - In the party Romeo and Juliet are 14. Young, innocent, playful and flirting. - In the balcony scene, they're in their 20s. More mature, deep, meaningful, passionate. This is no longer a childlike infatuation. This is true love. - In the bedroom scene, they're in their 30s or 40s. Melancholic, forced to be adults and make adult decisions. The sorrow of farewell. - In the death scene, they're 14 again. So young and vulnerable, having lost their first true loves and overwhelmed with despair.
Obsessed! Saw this in the cinema and literally got goosebumps. Their chemistry is AMAZING. Wish I could have been there in real life. Perfect Romeo and Juliet!
I have watched this over many times and I can tell you it is ballet at it’s finest.. where everything comes together, from years of training to principal dancers. As a ballet teacher and ballet coach for many years, every so often one comes across that undefinable magic between 2 dancers.. and this is it. The flawless technique and emotions conveyed by these 2 superb dancers speak a thousand words. Yes, and that moment where they kiss is truly seen and felt. Just pure joy to watch. Kudos to the 2 leads and their portrayal of the star-crossed lovers…this, and the bedroom scene, brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it. 🩰♥️🩰♥️

Their lines are literally so perfect it makes me want to cry from joy! Also they dance together so seamlessly I didn't know who's limbs were whose half the time. Absolutely stunning!
3:58 they are incredible. They made 3 minutes seem like hours, and I’m completely convinced that they are falling deeper and deeper into love just by DANCE- it’s immaculate
I love watching ballet. The dancers just throw all their emotions onto the stage, and the movements are so graceful. It truly makes you understand the truth behind communication through dance.
Performances in ballet should be filmed and videotaped as much as possible. That way people can have "gems" and "witnesses" of their craft for generations and generations to come.

Thank you Royal Opera House for reposting the extract with the last bit of music. That’s what makes this Opera House and ballet company my favorite. I see true respect not only to the viewers but to the art form itself. And again, this is an exquisite performance. My heart is full!
It’s like I could FEEL the chemistry and their attraction towards each other through the screen!!!! So incredibly beautiful I don’t know what to do with myself.
It was like they are extensions of one another. Like any good relationship you are meant to add to one another. Plus their chemistry made this pas de deux.
The most divine...her arms, them melting into each other over and over, the kiss, his face after she leaves, the choreography...this was truly special.
Bu eser Romeo ve Julyet'i o kadar güzel yansıtmış ki sözler yetersiz kalır. Aralarındaki kimya, özellikle de video kapağındaki bölümde nirvanaya ulaşmıştır. Çok duyguluydu ❤️👏🏻
when i say this dance has never made me cry i’d be lying. one time my studio did this dance for a showcase thingie (some professional guest dancers did this particular dance) and me and all my friends were balling our eyes out backstage
this is so beautiful. the amount of technique and skill needed for this piece is unbelievable, and they execute it perfectly. i am absolutely mind blown.
They are both magnificent. Besides their respective technique, what sublime performers .. They are literally possessed by their role. In three words: a pure wonder.
I mean this in the best of ways: Their dance looked so perfectly geometrical, but like, one of those patterns which is composed of straight lines, yet manages to give the impression of curves. Enchanting!
This is terrific. Every single move is done at the exact time it should be. It never stops flowing. Makes me understand more how important each and every detail is. I’m just a fan.

Yasmine and Francesca are the best Juliettes I can ever imagine!!
Just imaginging how a they will feel when they see this comment🥺
okay...honestly the most beautifully depicted Romeo and Juliet I have seen
This was so beautiful too but i think you should watch Alessandra Ferri's Romeo and Juliet balcony scene

Just like in Shakespeare! :)
LMAO YEAH LIKE BYE SEEYA CUTIE... SIKE
I KNOW IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL I'LL CRY
I've always wanted to be a ballerina but now I'm 17 and it's totally too late, but maybe it would happened in another life , this is art , wonderful .
It's never too late. If you love it, do it

It may be too late to join a ballet company, although not necessarily. But it's not too late to take up ballet for your own pleasure. Don't give up!
If there's a will there's a way... don't give up on your dream, it's never too late

His junk too
yes omg 😭😭
YES
I WAS THINKING THAT THE WHOLE TIME
When he kissed her hand and she flutterd away, that is the physical embodiment of what it feels like inside
4:09 I seriously thought it was Robert Pattinson...
Aurora Night I did too... The entire time.
i was wondering if anyone else thought this LOL
Glad I'm not the only one thinking of this...
I thought I was the only one who noticed the resemblence.
Ikrr
This is so romantic and also sensual at the same time. I definitely could feel the Romeo and Juliet atmosphere 😍
the way he holds her look like she's the most precious thing in the world
I feel like the duo's love ends up maturing so fast in this ballet.

dumb kids. one reason i never cared for the play...
Watching her point her feet is so satisfying
I love how joyful their movements are! the young lovers being swept away by what they find in each other is magic ❤
Indeed ❤
the chemistry is so strong that i can feel the emotion through my screen. this pair is absolutely stunning together❤️
The way she throws herself into his arms!! So much trust and chemistry
The chemistry though, i can't. Acting skills 10/10
How wonderful and breathtaking. What a couple!
Obsessed! Saw this in the cinema and literally got goosebumps. Their chemistry is AMAZING. Wish I could have been there in real life. Perfect Romeo and Juliet!
THAT WAS THE BEST BALLET CHEMISTRY IVE EVER SEEN
3:14 wow ne next seconds are so wonderful, she makes it look so flawless and easy and he is holding her like nothing, pure magic 🌟

That’s what makes this Opera House and ballet company my favorite. I see true respect not only to the viewers but to the art form itself.
And again, this is an exquisite performance. My heart is full!
Watching this dance is like water - they're so in sync with one another. They adapt to each other's shape so well. Profoundly beautiful.
This is the best chemistry. Comparable to Corella and Ferri. The kiss. Just wow. Their movements are glorious.
They look like they're dancing in a little elegant bubble, they beautifully portray the passion and excitement
It's lovely to see a Romeo and Juliet performed by dancers who appear to be age appropriate for the roles. Absolutely exquisite!
Wow she's literally gliding... such beautiful, light movements.
Screaming, crying , throwing up. This is SPLENDID
oh wow this is perfection just tugging at my heartstrings. the way he breathes her in like air...they just told a story without words
absolutely beautiful...I must say that Matthew is quite handsome!
The dancing is so perfect, it looks so effortless, like she's floating, flying and free.
so satisfying to see macmillan danced cleanly with attention to line.
This is one of the best chemistry performances I've ever seen within the younger generation dancers. Breathtaking@
Breathtaking😍 they are incredibly talented dancers and have amazing chemistry😍😍

There will never again be such entrancing choreography as in this past de send! You can feel the love. Totally magnetic!Bravo Kenneth MacMillan
