Ferri and Cornejo to dance R&J with ABT in June 2016

Alessandra Ferri, one of the world's best Juliets, will be returning to the role in MacMillan's ballet for one performance only with American Ballet Theatre next June 23 at the Metropolitan Opera House, the  New York Times has announced. Her partner will be the brilliant Herman Cornejo. Ferri is 52 years old, and retired from dancing a few years ago but has been making a comeback and will also be performing in John Neumeier's new ballet based on the life of actress Eleonara Duse in Hamburg this year.

Definitely worth a trip to New York!
