NYCB's triple bill that harks back to the 1950s proves a love letter to an America that never was.

A slightly under par opening night at New York City Ballet but nevertheless, some strong individual performances.

Balanchine's much-loved yet maddeningly disjointed A Midsummer Night's Dream returns to New York City Ballet. Some glorious performances on opening night, some uneven. But the night belonged to the bugs.

Alexei Ratmansky’s poignant and gripping new work breaks ground at New York City Ballet in a powerful triple bill.

An uneven performance with mishaps and mis-pairings, yet still offering some outstanding individual interpretations.

The final performance at NYCB’s fall season was the best one. One has to have just pure admiration for this company, its dancers, its history, its future.

The company’s latest Firebird is Isabella LaFreniere. She’s perfect for the role. LaFreniere is tall, commanding, magisterial, with unusually liquid arms and an expressive back.

A trio of audience-pleasing Balanchine ballets as a blizzard blows through New York City...

The NYCB dancers are very at-home in this idiom, and they threw themselves wholeheartedly into this ballet. It was never less than watchable, but the music cried out for more avante-garde choreography than Peck provided.
