Tybalt costume sketch

Tybalt costume sketch for Romeo and Juliet designed by Susan Benson (1994).

The second Shakespearean ballet that Benson designed for The National Ballet of Canada was Romeo and Juliet in 1995. Similar to The Taming of the Shrew in 1992, Benson redesigned sets and costumes for the existing choreography by John Cranko.
