Ballet Festival: Dancer in New York

About Ballet Festival

Ballet Festival is a rotating dance program presented in New York City, staged at The Joyce Theater. In “Ballet Festival: Curated by Misty Copeland,” Copeland assembles the evening from the perspective of her years with American Ballet Theatre and appears onstage alongside the roster. The project frames ballet as a living repertory rather than a fixed canon, pairing established names with newer voices. Its selections tend to favor musical clarity and craft over spectacle.
