San Francisco Ballet’s 2015 season opener at the War Memorial Opera House offers a triple bill of neoclassicism, high drama and joyous celebration. 

It must be exciting to be a member of San Francisco Ballet, America’s oldest ballet company, founded in 1933. These classically trained dancers are given the opportunity to sample many wonderful new works, rather than a repertoire of old traditional masterpieces.
