When will rehearsals begin for some of the new performances that are listed for the new season?

(Sorry if its a really stupid question but I've only been watching ballet for about 12 months and I still have to learn a lot of obvious things..)

Luxie, some have probably already begun -- I don't think there's a predictable schedule, at any company, especially one that uses choreographers or stagers from outside the company, as the schedule will depend on their other commitments.  Often ballets for the next season are rehearsed at the end of the season -- or at least the rehearsals begin -- and then resume a few weeks before the premiere.
