When Helgi Tomasson set out to choreograph his full length Romeo and Juliet (1994) he said he considered using other music than Prokofiev’s. I’m glad he didn’t. His version is a richly costumed adaptation with beautiful sets. He hews to the standard episodic score as his company's dancers navigate effortlessly between theater and dance. On this program were Joan Boada and Maria Kochetvova in the title roles. Boada's Romeo is played as a kind of everyman character. Music by The Pacific Symphony.

San Francisco Ballet concluded its repertory program on Wednesday at Segerstrom Center for the Arts with a program of works by San Francisco Ballet Artistic Director Helgi Tomasson , current company resident choreographer, Yuri Possokhov and George Balanchine. In the end it was RAkU(2011) with its soaring designs, psychologically weighted movement and brooding orchestral score by Shinji Eshima which made the most lasting impression. RAKU was impressive for its astonishing design and acting.
