Inspired by an oft neglected scene from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet that most dance and film interpretations leave by the wayside, Gallop Apace explores the depth of Juliet’s inner strength and multifaceted emotions as she navigates a transformation from anxious young bride to grief-stricken woman. Classically trained NYCB Principal Dancer Sara Mearns effortlessly embodies the choreography of Bobbi Jene Smith and Or Schraiber in this kinetic interpretation of Juliet’s moving soliloquy, with cinematography by Trevor Tweeten.
