Four years after the Met’s first-ever staging of Cherubini’s rarely performed take on Euripides’ ancient Greek tragedy, the opera returns with the Bulgarian soprano conquering the notoriously difficult title role.

“The course of true love never did run smooth...” A fantastic triple bill from American Ballet Theatre which included Ashton’s magical The Dream.

American Ballet Theatre perform a triple bill in which Jiří Kylián’s Petite Mort was the stand out piece.

American Ballet Theatre’s fall season continues with its Neoclassical Works program, featuring works by Sir Frederick Ashton, Kyle Abraham and George Balanchine. 

George Saunders’ prize-winning novel moves from page to stage in Lileana Blain-Cruz’s genre-defying, visually breathtaking and surprisingly cheerful production of Missy Mazzoli and Royce Vavrek’s operatic adaptation.

A stirring but not overly sentimental program curated by Adrian Danchig-Waring for his farewell performance included a striking new work by Pam Tanowitz, two towering Balanchine works and a Lar Lubovitch duet. 

An interesting mix of rarely seen and frequently revived Balanchine ballets at New York City Ballet.
