Alexei Ratmansky/Co-production with American Ballet Theatre
SF Ballet embarks on an unprecedented artistic journey with American Ballet Theatre and their artist-in-residence, Alexei Ratmansky, presenting one of his most highly anticipated works to date: a full-evening trilogy set to the stirring music of Dmitri Shostakovich. The first act of this groundbreaking ballet premiered in October 2012 at New York’s City Center to ecstatic audience and critical praise; The New York Times said, “To watch it the first time is to keep finding surprises… its unfolding structure and its moods are dynamic, as if the terrain about it were continually shifting, like a kaleidoscope.”
