A world premiere ballet by Alexei Ratmansky, who joins the Company as artist in residence this season, forms the centerpiece of this program. Jerome Robbins's Opus 19/The Dreamer casts an elusive spell with its imagery of a nocturnal journey into the mysteries of the mind, with a muse-like figure haunting the imagination of the dreamer of the title. The program concludes with Balanchine's iconic leotard ballet Symphony in Three Movements, a dance alive with electric energy.
Performances on Feb. 15, 23, 24 (matinee), 25, 27, & 28.
