New York City Ballet: Jewels
About This Event
Founded in 1948 by George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein, the New York City Ballet has been central to the development of American ballet, tracing roots to earlier pioneering ensembles and maintaining a repertory-driven approach. Its staging of Jewels at the New York City Ballet underscores that repertory focus and shows the company's technical and stylistic traditions on its home stage.
About Jewels
Elizabeth II owned a historic collection of jewels – some as monarch and others as a private individual. They are separate from the gems and jewels of the Royal Collection, and from the coronation and state regalia that make up the Crown Jewels.
