Alexei Ratmansky's The Nutcracker for American Ballet Theatre is probably the best one since it was first created. Gillian Murphy and James Whiteside danced with poignant grace and radiant musicality that thrilled the audience.

In their fifth season at BAM Fisher, Satellite Collective performs choreography by Esme Boyce and Manuel Vignoulle.

This was one of those shows where it paid to do your homework. The first thing you need to know is that Lyon Opera Ballet is not a ballet company.

This BAM production of Benjamin Britten’s Billy Budd, imported from Glyndebourne, achieves the rare distinction of making a great performance out of a decidedly mediocre work.

Almost exactly a year ago, Hofesh Shechter Company graced the stage of Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Howard Gilman Opera House, with the choreographer’s explosive Political Mother.

When Japanese Manga cartoons meet Latvian opera singers in a Danish theatre company’s cauldron, one imagines that the sum total of it all could easily translate into a massive train wreck. And yet, this doesn't.

John Heginbotham’s new piece Dark Theater is an intriguingly ambiguous bit of narrative that makes very careful use of musical phrasing – unfortunately, often to the point of predictability. But his movement is fresh and welcomingly idiosyncratic, and certainly no one can accuse him of not making full use of the BAM Fisher theater.
