A huge success for Boryana Petrova and Emil Yordanov on the third premiere performance of the “Romeo and Juliet” ballet

Elena Zhelovska
“Boryana Petrova and Emil Yordanov made my eyes water”

“I saw the performance tonight and I’m exceptionally thrilled by everything about it: decors, costumes, the fencing work (wow!); however, Boryana Petrova and Emil Yordanov made my eyes water. In three hours, Boryana grew from a thirteen-year old girl to a brave, decisive and bold woman. She’s a very talented drama actress. Applause for everyone involved in this stunning performance”.
