    About This Event

    The American Ballet Theatre, a longstanding company in New York's classical ballet scene, presents Othello: A Dance in Three Acts by Lar Lubovitch. Presented at the American Ballet Theatre, the production features an original score by Elliot B. Goldenthal and adapts Shakespeare's Othello into a three-act ballet that juxtaposes ABT's classical technique with contemporary choreography.

    About Don Quixote(ballet)

    Don Quixote

    jeff from denver, US

    A staple of the 19th-century classical repertory, *Don Quixote* draws on episodes from Cervantes’ novel, filtering its wandering knight through a sunny village story centered on Kitri and Basilio. First shaped by choreographer Marius Petipa to music by Ludwig Minkus, it survives today as a touchstone for bravura dancing and ensemble precision. In New York, American Ballet Theatre has helped make it part of the city’s shared ballet vocabulary, returning to it across generations. Its lasting value is practical as much as narrative: it tests technique while insisting on theatrical clarity.
