Is the Prokofiev ballet Romeo and Juliet performed with narration?
It seems like an obvious question, but neither the Wikipedia page, nor the IMSLP page, will tell me if this ballet is performed with narration, or if ballet is entirely instrumental.

If performed with narration, what Russian translation/narration was used?

Prokofiev almost certainly didn't intend "Romeo and Juliet" to be performed with narration because there is no narration in the score.
It's not usual for ballets to be performed with a narration, although it might be done in certain cases, e.g. for educational purposes.
