Spectacular Bolshoi Ballet
Spectacular Bolshoi Ballet The Bolshoi Ballet makes its American debut at the Metropolitan Opera House in a production of 'Romeo and Juliet'. It is as lavish as Russian grandeur will allow. 49-Year-old ballet star Galina Ulanova - who was somewhat less than an ideal Juliet - found nonetheless that it was her evening. Greta Garbo and a celebrity packed house turned out for the Prokofieff [Prokofiev] presentation of 'Romeo and Juliet'. Mostly young people wait, seated outside in a queue. Night, exterior of building entrance, lit up (evokes going to the theatre). Very well dressed, upper class patrons arrive. Dag Hammerskjold (?). Russian ambassador (?). Elsa Maxwell (?). Stage curtains open and performers (?) step forward to take a bow.
