ABT offer some outstanding performances in a classical quadruple bill but there was a lack of confidence and uniformity within the corps de ballet. 

American Ballet Theater’s La Bayadère transports viewers to another world, not just back in time, but to a place that rarely exists outside one’s own imagination. This fantastic, limitless quality characterizes La Bayadère, from the sets to the costumes, the music, and of course the dancing.This three-act ballet is a classic love story of star-crossed lovers destined to break the audience’s heart.
